Just ordered a 450lph Walbro in tank as only other in tanks I have are 300lph and don't think that'd be enough





I've also managed to get some practice in on my TIG

I'm sure MY TIG won't be the prettiest but I'm determined to TIG all my own exhaust on this build myself even the V bands which is the hardest to TIG I'm learning lol

It's all theory from measuring arm but should fit lol Down pipe and flexi done, not bad for my 1st attempt at TIG I think.

No more updates for PROJECTCARBONBLOO for now as winnttee stopped play in the car but engine build is compile and ready to go back in.

But I'm out of action now most of this year so will be little while before any updates but she will get done!

Managed to pic up a FRS MTX75 only done 500miles and has KAAZ diif and longer 5th ration.


All I've got to do is swap bellhousing casing with a front mounted starter one I have off of a late MK1 TDCi.

Recommissioned 909 baffled and gated big wing F2 sump for the 500bhp boosted #BLOO engine build as I've decided to fit one of the dry sumps to our yellow F2 build instead which this was previously destined for. AN10 oil return added now just to relocate the oil pick up pipe to centre of sump. Fire up the TIG!

#MRMSpeedShop







Will be more progress on fitting engine when I've finally moved and have new workshop as its all in the hands of solicitors arm and we all know they don't rush.
