Well im now told work has started on the shell again so hopefully we will see it sorted soon i guess,

took the engine out from the old car a few weeks back, and as it has a crack in the Swedish plenum' it has drawn it quite a bit of moisture which has ended up in the sump, so it has been stripped right back to the block again but luckily there is no damage anywhere so that will get all cleaned up and put back together soon and this time round il sort out some better pics...

Also ordered some kevlar Corbeau revolutions from Tony Ryan for a good price, such a Top top guy



whilst i was there i also picked up a gated sump plate too, got some double valve springs from Newman cams while i was passing them also

Other than that iv sorted out a wrc type oil breather and fittings, So at least we have some progress
