My 3dr engine bay restoration project completed!
I decided to do my lifters and change the colour scheme of the engine bay as the gold was making my eyes water
One thing led to another and basically the engine is in bits
I am hoping to get the car done for April
Here’s how she looked under the bonnet
Once i got the tanks off i could see that the bay was quite messy and covered in bits of oil and crud.
Sooooooooooo I thought I’ll just remove this and that and a few other bits to make it easier to clean
Then the inevitable happened
While the engine is out i am going to renew a few seals and hoses
Loom coming out for a tidy up
Few bits being cleaned up
Tanks all polished back to stainless ready to have some bits welded then powder coated
Brackets ready for painting
Other small bits Cleaned up
Thought I’d cheer myself up and get some bits for when she goes back together
Custom stainless PAS cooler (cheers Lee @Fusion
) got a stainless bottom water pipe as well and stainless boost pipe but forgot to take pics
Thanks again to Lee for starting the comp housing off
Decent boost hose clamps
RS500 front Splitter
Refurbed cam cover from Gaz at Northwest cam covers top job
Carbon Cam belt cover looks really good in the flesh
Had these Grills kicking about too so they will go on
My BBS rims that will be refurbed black with a polished lip and then diamond cut face so the will look the same as the standard rims but a bit more bling
Cheers for looking and I’ll keep you updated
