Morning mate,
Apologies, the images wouldnt load on my phone and we didn't get home until very late last night as was out enjoying the sun in the lakes.

Your installation looks fine and the jumper to enable P8 mode is fitted so its not that sadly as that would have been a nice easy fix.

Yes, L8 and P8 are straight swops.
Maybe you could borrow this fellas L8 and Ignition amps?

Unplugged one and made no difference, plugged that back in and un plugged the other and popped out of the exhaust and would not start, I then plugged the one the car ran with in to the other connector from the loom to rule that out and the car runs

Seems to be a fault with one of the amps, if its a problem with the heat sink to the back will this cause problems?
Glad your making progress mate. The heatsink would only cause a problem after a period of running, it wouldn't cause a non start.
