Can't believe there's no pics of Jacko's when it was green flip and scissor bonnet and when it went blue/green flip paint on 20's and hydro's! I've not got any but I'm sure someone could get some up.
Not really sure mine was from 'back in the day' but here it is anyway...

Using it to land dust on!
The bottom end is fully re-assembled, the head - all built back up is in the box to the left of the block, under the black sack full of ICE cables. I need to remove the PAS rack and fit a non PAS rack, which is in there somewhere then put the top and bottom of engine back together and drop it back in. Oh, needs a new exhaust system. Its been like that ^^^ for about 2years with no more progress

I took it out a couple of times since the track day, bought a new fuel pump relay and fitted that but never drove it with the new relay so dont know if that fixed it! The engine actually came out January 2008, really wanting it back on the road lately, maybe i should pay Lee to come down and sort out the mess Ive made
On that track day, I do beleive the strange noise(if you remember?) that developed was due to me having cracked 3 or 4 valve guides!
