ok, not done very much this last 2 days cause ive been working and sleeping but done a bit.

got the fuel pump and lines in


striped the old engine, amazed how much ive taken off the clutch plate in the 900miles since i last had it out got to stop launching the car



painted up the new block that i finally got this weekend after 4 months of waiting still worth it though i think, got the block with pistons and rods (only done 500 miles since being built) for £450
thought i would go for blue this time

new pistons, been told they are 7:5:1 comp, but got to get this checked out


did the valve guides. who says you need a press to do them just do it the devon way and use a gert big hammer


modded sump that i had fitted the first time round, got 5mm skid plates on the bottom just incase i get a bit low to the tarmac


although i never had any problems yet i decided to add another baffel box inside the sump, should hold oil aroung the pickup a bit better



will update some more in a couple days
