It will have about 260hp to start with. Should be running in the next few days, here's what we did on Saturday...
Wiring loom nearly done.
Driveshafts in and fitted, this might not seem like a big deal but anyone that knows Rover 200/25/ZR models will know that non were ever available with equal length driveshafts.... mine has this
Made some polybushed mounts with nylon thrust washers... very stiff now!
Sorted most of the water pipes.
