Couple of things to note for this project on the off, whilst checking out what I have remaining from my delightful 3i, I have located my vac advance stand alone ignition which will be much better suited to the Weber setup I'm fitting.
Also had a call from a dear friend informing me he has a S2 LSD box waiting for me when I go see him....
I have also fitted the 3i starter and heatshield and the car seems much much happier from cold.
