Default Check out this lovely Engine Install

Took a few piccys from last nights Essex meet, getting right into old Skool stuff now.

Lovely install Coil packs and phase sensor are both looking pretty trick


I like it but stripped cars with race looks NEED a Roll cage IMHO... they work as well










Sorry I didn't get any more.

nice and bufty but the coilpack is in the wrong place it will get damp and wet
best to fit on the engine as the heat keeps it warm so i been told
hence mine is on the block
lets just hope it gets used in anger and not pushed from show to show with cloth heads

Them pictures don't do it justice, it looks even cleaner in the flesh. The attention to detail is amazing, air filter coming out of the inner wing, the removal of the bulge in the bulk head....alot of work, and 400+bhp.
The yellow one with esc cossy rims is running 350bhp on greys without NOS, and I swear it is almost uncontrollable when I drive it, so imagine the others!!!
We built the cossy powered yellow one in 2 weeks, than ran it in at USC santa pod last year
The blue mk1 was also a 'home made' restoration and conversion.
