Hopefully the pictures do the talking!!

The bottom-end is now built and work is starting to assemble the head. There is another parcel on the way from the US, containing more goodies, which should be here in the next couple of days.

Of course, all this engine malarky is useless without serious upgrade in terms of fuel supply. For this, AMS have again engineered a 1000bhp capable fuel system. It consists of an uprated Walbro in-tank pump, coupled with a second Walbro pump outside the tank. Both pump supply a rigid -8 line to the front of the car.......
