Last few bits now sorted. Big cooler and rad did fit with a few mods 
Engine is ready to run.
R&D 6 speed dog box with long 6th (Martin Hadlands old box)
Also got a 71/2" gripper plated rear diff
Will be using my Bara diff justnow this is for future upgrade when i go for a adjustable rear beam. Total over kill realy for my engine spec as the Bara diff would be fine but planning ahead incase i go for more power later.

Got the car back and started the running in , done 250 trouble free miles so far 
Decided to take the car off the road and fit the new box so i can get use to it without full power and diff, then decided while it was in the air i should give the underside a bit of a clean up, so it will be getting re undersealed then given a coat of paint in the next few days after a good clean down.

Also got the floor cleaned down and any rust treated, propshaft and rear drive shafts panted aswell.

Well after spending all the money on the eingine i decided to sort out some decent gauges, so these will be here some time next week hopefully. Plan is to fit these my Elliot boost gauge,secs monitor and a Stack rev/speedo and Stack AFR gauge.
