that feature was the bomb i even had to read it twice over because i was so intrested in it and the work that has gone in to it is just remarkable when i breaks down you dont just give up like some people do and you need respect for that and all your hard work you have put in the car!
Well done mate

Don't do that James.

Save some money up, pay someone to build the engine for you, with all the right parts.

Run it in, have it mapped, then you'll love it.

It'll be cheaper in the long run than rebuilding it 7 times
