just some old pics of the newish lump,,,,im so bored and cant sleep

 

Keep the orange indicators mate, look

Nice car too

 

is that a felpro head gasket? if so bin it mate everyone says standard ford one

 

yeh m8 im keeping orange indicaters and no i cnt bin the gasket because its the only one they do for a 1900 m8

 

ok fair enough mate

 

i reckon you should give me the headunit until your cars ready least i can have some tunes then haha

looking good mate, will pop over tomoz!

 

Looks awesome, lot of bodyshop hours have gone in to that boot lid!

 

just orderd another 300quids worth of bit for it....and lee your not having my hedunit i payed 450 about 5years ago for that...i rekon its still the best on the market

 

the engines all cleaned up and nearly ready to fit...i just need my water hosed new plugs oil and some luck...more pics on there way

 

as promised some new pics

 

 

unlucky mate, hope you get it sorted.

 

should have it sorted and on the road for next week......then i can rip about in a 1900turbo

 

just fitted al full set of coolant hoses and achilery hoses

 

What you mean with this- put cold start valve up? car will cathc file... can someone explain this please

 

If you leave the pipe loose, it'll spray fuel all over the engine bay

 

looking good bud keep up the good work.

tony

 

i was rushing it and forgot to do up the cold start pipe and it sprayed petrol over the ht lead which then sparked thus fire

 

So you didnt connect fuel line to cold start valve? If i understand... Sorry my bad english...

 

it was cnnected just not fully done up

 

thanks mate. btw great job

 

new fuel lines are on now and all fire damage is sorted..
sadly the starter motor has decided to stop working..has anyone got one lying about

 

go to the rs breakers by us... quickest way to get 1

 

looks good pity about the small fire keep it up

 

wicked starter problem sorted ....i cant bloody work out the fireing sequence out ..

 

and another fuel line is leaking half way down doooooooooooooooooooh

 

newish up date as its been months and it still dosnt work.
underneath is undersealed
inside the whole of the car is painted and sealed
sterio refitted and workin
interia refitted.
just got to get the thing workin now

 

thats a pe 1.9 and a standard ford gasket would fit it fine.
tim

 

i was thinking the gasket was to big.....will it be ok ???

 

nice turbo mate. what are you hoping to get bhp wise

 

nice!

 

anything over 1900bhp and safe

 

a safe 1900 bhp

 

the felpro will fit it ok but its not a very good gasket thats all,dont worry about it.
tim

oh and 1900 bhp respect lol

 

190

 

i have a carbon fibre triple gauge holder on order and here is the progress that has been made ..i really cant wait to see the finished product
