Thought I may aswell update as engine is apparently ready soon as its clutch turns up:/

The power figure should be around the 400hp mark

Loom extended to be a lot more hidden



Fuel pipes been removed, for a custom set up to be run

My new Manifold



Collected a new 3" bore exhaust system

FINALLY got engine back on Saturday, set about fitting it on Sunday. Got two mounts in, and one is wrong mount

New one arrives tomorrow, so engine should be mounted. Then the fun begins

Well that didn't go according to plan :/










Aiming for 400hp
