engine has been built with low comp pistons re-ground crank and all new standard bearings iv got the recipts somewhere the bloke i got it of said it was built for 300bhp
but i be happy with a reliable 200 the powerchip i got is for 230 bhp running beige injectors but am unsure as i read somewhere that there only good for 200 bhp?
only time will tell once its all in & get it set up
as far as pluming it all in i found it easy just fab up some coolant junctions moved the sensor of the inlet manifold to the thermostate housing and put a two pin fan switch in the same housing aswell.
fab alternator bracket and engine mount.i used mk1 mondeo alternator
when i got the funds i be going megasquirt/omex or what ever comes up cheap lol
just having time slowing me down realy busy at work & private jobs
ps let us know how you get on with wiring in the megasquirt?
