Go for dark grey not black and don't do anything too wacky on the roof.

Ian - i thought a matt black, but i suppose a dark gray, kinda gunmetal might be similar and look less DIY
What do you class as wacky.... a big blue pair of boobs?

the orig 88mm bored block had slight wearing.... we decided it would be better to use my spare block in the long run.... so it had to be bored from 86 to 88mm, then all pistons, crank etc etc had to be moved over...
The head has been built
the gearbox has been built
just waiting for the head to come back, then they can go about fitting the engine with TB's then mapping
