Ok good news the engine was dropped into my brothers engine bay to see if i can squeeze the starter in on the drivers side you know the steering shaft side well im rapt it will fit thanks to the cyclone engine being tall but quite thin down around the lower part under the heads. Im using a reduction starter off a late model hilux so it should have the grunt to turn this beast over.
Ok hers a photo.

Gday or Arsesore as they say in japan
Had a great time and became japanese for 2 weeks rather than look at all the temples and stuff that tourists do, ate some great food and met some lovely people.
Caught the shinkansen down to okayama then the local train to the modern kaaz factory and with broken english,sign language and gesturing we purchased a lsd centre after the obligitry coffee party we parted ways and jumped back on the bullet train to kyoto for a few saki's.
I wanted the car painted before i left but now i need to make some cash so things might slow up a tad,but here's the adaptor plate and flywheel tha Mazfix have made and they look great so its getting there bit by bit.
