, I think you made a solid choice there mate.
To many ppl get carried away with building the feecking things and not getting the enjoyment out of them.
Why im gonna try and get mine on the road faster at a lower spec to use it and just work on it as and when to get it there, instead of trying to hit it all in one.

Agreed, I'll build my engine right but run a t34 to get it going, then lob a turbo the size of devon on there in a year or so. saves on expensive managment, live maps and diffs straight away.
