Hello one and all, been a while since the last update but im glad to report that she's finally got an engine in her!!! Not had it running yet but theres an engine in there!
Had a few **** ups over the last few months..... main one being the let engine i had brought was ****ed, the bottom end was completely hammered rendering it useless. Didnt have enuff to buy another let so used my old xe bottom end. The next problem was i couldnt find let pistons, searched high and low for weeks but gave up and brought some over sized ones and had the block bored out to a 2.1 which cost me far too much lol
Just waiting on getting the 90 degree elbows for the t'intercooler and sourcing some fuel lines and she should be good to go.
I thought it was tight with the xe but this one is well and truly shoe horned in!!

Liking that lad.
If you'd described it to me I'd have puked but in the pics it looks a treat. Good luck with the finishing touches which are what really make the difference between 'so so' & awesome.
