Been really busy this weekend got my new block and bottom end set up. Had to work Saturday so was trying to get parts ordered while i was in the office and had some spare time.
When the block arrived i immediately hated the colour. bright red!!!! as my engine is chrome / silver and blue i thought red would look odd. So i went out and got some high temperature silver paint. I was rubbing down and spraying until 9 last night then i had to go out.
Started applying some of the ancillaries today and got the oil pump, water pump and tensioner bolted on. Put the bottom pulley on for looks at the moment as i need to get it machined down. Hopefully a mate through work is gonna be able to take some material off to give me some more clearance against the bodywork.
Oh and sent the cam back to kents for inspection as its knackered and a new head has been sent to good ol ian howl who is gonna do some work on it for me.
Any way gonna get some pics of what it all looks like up on the net a bit later as camera is on charge.
finally its coming together. speaking to flashpoint (steve) as well to when he can fit in the car to have the loom modified for EFi.
