test fitted the engine just so i can get all ancillaries mounted and make sure everything fits in lol,no probs will have to mount coil inside the car getting a bit short of space,buftied the box while i was on and also got my custom breather tank back from alloy racing fabrications well impressed with the workmanship today will strip it all backout,fit the verniers,etc get the car sent away to get painted.

Look's really nice ,,, Did you use the compressor in the pic? as it don't look a big enough tank to do on side in one go? Did you just paint one panel at a time?
