Okay, more pics.
Fuel rail cleaned off
Reassembled with fuel pressure regulator and new o-ring
Inlet manifold has had the section between the letters painted with black engine enamel
The Ford logo on the manifold has been painted in as well and then the top smoothed back to show the lettering in original alloy finish
Just in the process of polishing the lettering up on the manifold so that it is smooth compared to the grained finish on the rest of the manifold. It will then be time to reassemble the throttle-body, sensors, etc... and once the valves are back in the cylinder head, reassemble the inlet manifold onto the head, fit fuel rail and injectors, etc....
