Cool as!
Mine was doing that on the dyno! Harvey kept switching the light off so it could light the whole room up!
Engine looks and sounds to be making very progressive power with no adverse moving around within the bay! Top work!

Running Vibra-Technic competition mounts, which funnily enough highlights my box is on its way out!
Dropping it out next week as 5th gear is beginning to rumble.
New bearings or new gearkit , Im yet to decide

I imagine within the next month, need to sort a few things out first as Bedford highlighted a few areas in which need adjusting with handling/brakes.

Heat wrapping can cuase more damage than good in some cases.. although visibly hot, wrapping could cause internal damage.
All items surrounding the collector are wrapped and the bonnet has heat proofing from the vband clamp post turbo this is all wrapped.
