I then need to do a dry build up to make sure everything does what I need before total strip again and then going off for paint which will be engine bay, interior and probably underside too.

So if we assume a few weeks to build and strip (working Friday, Sat and Sun on it) probably the odd holiday then paint time I am thinking it will be 5 months or more before Mark can map the final car and do the final suspension setup.

I will be updating the thread with progress updates and then hope I do not have to spend too long on the rebuild as I want to be driving it in 2018! In the mean time I have got all the wiring to sort out and get the engine how I want it.
