yeah its running, seemed to have a slight missfire so just fitted brand new genuine bosch coilpack, genuine coolant temp sensor and a new thermostat too...
tried another engine loom aswell etc... still not 100% yet.. bit wiring needs sorted inside the car (not that theres much of that left, looms very basic to save weight)
then need to fit wideband
get wheels alinment, caster etc... (rose jointed)
then get it out...
was aiming for usc but not too sure that going to happen yet as still not got a trailer or finished wiring in the tow bar on the vec... too much to do, too little time

iv put a lot more effort into this compared to the last one... hope it shows when it finally gets used
and for now, its got the same exhaust system on (ported the flanges out to meet the heads) but its not as loud... 3l's are a lower down grunt compared to the rev happy 2.5's haha
