.So in order to get the engine ready in time for the Ring, I had to go for Accralite pistons and standard rods (which is what was in the car before it was stripped).

We're NOT taking my maxo!
Another quadra? Which exactly is your main toy? Have you got another 21?
The Bora would be ok
Yeah Bora would be ok on the ring I reckon....especially since I've coilovered & polybushed the front end!!!
Latest update....
Big ends are fitted, crankcase stiffener, new oil pump & sump is back on & I have oil pressure off the starter motor....well I did until the battery went flat!!!
Was thinking of fitting the oil cooler round about here....
Getting some lines made up today hopefully!!!

I need a chap in Holland who is currently off work to get better and make my suspension kit and send it over to |London. I then need another chap to send it to Me in Scotland.
I need the chaps at AP to hit their dead line to produce my front and rear brake kits
I need a race team to come back from Jerez and fit and setup the above to perfection on time.
I need a chap in Germany to send my wheels
I need Budget to fit my tyres.
I need all this to happen to clock work perfection otherwise the car wont be ready.
HOWEVER its technically ready at the moment, I just want these upgrades.
I WILL be ready
