the internal spec is a bit too long to put on here right now and im sure i wont remember it all, but it should do well i hope...

the reason i wanted to cop out was just the fact its a million stupid little bits that need finishing...

alternater bracket.......
fuel rail mods. fuel rail mounts
throttle cable mounts
inlet seals and gaskets
sensor mountings
managment wireing (ofab frst)
water pipes and runs...

the list is endless.........

but i guess i will have to get there now....
I think you will be happy in the end when it´s all done.

You wouldn´t have any pics of the sump?

what exactly is going to be done by JEM's Race Engineering then?

Do they have a website? Sounds like the kind of company that may be able to help me with something

It looks like a very interesting project

he is a small company but in my opinion on of the best engineering companys out there,
he is going to take my car to bits and start again, as its only on a dummy build at the min, he will have to re-make a few brackets to high std and also sit the geomotry correct buy slotting the rear beam ect, i am going to wire it completely and Jon will do the engine loom and Omex installation,.. anyhow if you need anything at all doing then give him a ring, he usually just does race cars and monster spec engines, 800hp+ he also builds all of adrian at fenSports engines for him, the car at TOTB was one of jon's cars... ect,
number is 01327 702270
