    Delooming is one of the best jobs ever.
    All I wanted was a Pepsi, just one Pepsi
    Far from suicidal
    Still I get them tendencies
    Bringing back them memories
    That I really miss when I reminisce

    thanks benn, indeed - im with ya. tho your the daddy at that .
    Those pics kinda mislead ; shows like ive completed the re-routing of the loom with the wing off in some pics then back on in others.
    Ive finally found where the engine loom was connected to so that now gone, im now fitting the new mbe loom asa well as sorting and re-routing the existing loom.
    Feeling much happier progress finally being made.

    *Quick update..
    So 2 weeks until billing.. hmm.
    Im waiting for martins last few bits; still no sign of the throttle pot, throttle bracket and hose finishers.. hmm.
    But i have now ordered the last of the bits i should need to finish the project; right down pretty much to every last nut n bolt.
    The weekends progress; Ive been trying to sort all the other little jobs in preparation for next weekends stab at getting the engine in and running.

    The new engine itself is ready to go in, pretty much as you see it here; once the alternator/tensioner/belt setup has been fitted and then whole lot paired with new clutch and the F15 'box. The rest of the bits will bolt on when in the 'bay.
    Other main job was to finish the on going job of running the wiring loom in between the inner and outer wing..



    All done now, p-clipped and tube'd.. just hope ive done it all right and it works .
    Elsewhere engine mounts are done, a mate from work sprayed them up with his compressor, summat i just can't get round to affording to buy for myself a nice one with all the bits..

    Finally, i picked up a bargain, £77 off ebay, a top condition Magnex full stainless system..

    Did a quick 'mock-up' of the system with manifold.

    Chuffed with that.
    So hopefully ill be bringing a big big update next weekend, with the engine and running gear in, at least, but hopefully running also.
    More soon.

    Nice work hiding the loom, looks like you didn't even need to cut any holes too? Using the side repeater hole?

    ta iain yes side repeater hole, but because the loom with the conduit tubing is quite bulky now, i have nipped a bit off the slam panel; where it meets the wing when its fitted; so the loom fits inbetween..
    You see the linkage work i had done??

    Just looked now, looks good, quickshift too? One thing though, could you maybe invert that bolt on the selector end, as I remember having clearance issues with the gearbox with just a standard thinner nut than what you're using.
