hopefully the new engine should sort that?
the old one looked to be a bit of a home built mess. things iv taken off were not tight or held in with different bolts. the blue painted block was a giveaway that it had been out before.
im hoping for better than 2 track days 2 engine strips with this one

New steering wheel. No other reason than it looks more track related than the momo with yellow centre band.




Putting the engine back together and wrapped the manifold.





Just the rad to fit, that's all connected to front end so ready to bolt on as one. Then fit the exhsust. Change brake lines and I'm done.
