Got the gaskets and sensors so it is full steam ahead - athough had to order some silicone hose I needed. And freaked up a few Speedflow/aeroquip fittings.... damn that poo poo is addictive..... and expensive



Mounted the harmonic balancer and crank trigger wheel - thanks to Paul and Danny.



Also made sure the injector dynamics injetors fitted. Got to mod the loom.

Once again I apologise for the image quality - at the dyno I will take many better quality images.



I love this solution from dry sump to engine. Fits so well I used a remote take for an oil cooloer to get the oil in (blanking one side) and a stubby regular filter just fits. It all clears the plenum just too!!!!











More aeroquip..







And the alternator mount - standard mount just turn the alternator upside down - really far from manifold!!!!!! Wish I'd bought an opposite handed alternator as the adjuster (with will come off the dry sump pan) would have been a lot shorter.

I am loving the way the rear end is sitting at the moment - just stringlined it all up.



And this took balls - hole in the carbon bonnet





for these



My friend cant stop teasing me "too fast too furious" but this car is coming out exactly as I had in my mind and that is all that matters.'

poo poo camera you say? Eat me!

Gonna bug you all with poor quality photos again. Soz!



Took apart and clean/painted the fron lights and refitted them. Also worked out how I was going to make the fron bumper quick release. Got some good ideas so will show later (gonna work on the car tonight).



Also mounted the rear bladed adjustable arb and drop links are going to mount to extended bolts on the rear shock mounts. Making them today.

We have engine cranking!!! 30psi oil pressure on crank, no leaks, spark & timing all good, all sensors AOK. Took a couple of photo's but they are worse than normal ones so I will not make you squint.

Took some time as wired up a big alluminium terminal box full of the electrics but worth it for "hopefully" an untroubled start to the engine dyno.
