Hi Guys,
Update time it is! Its been a while again I know but we do have some more progress. Before easter I dropped in to see how the guys building the engine were progressing only to find them timing it up with not much left to do which was great to see. Inspired by this I toddled off and finished up the gearbox by painting the clutch lever arm in black before wrapping the box back up to keep it nice and clean.............

A recently acquired tx replacement rear pipe was then rubbed and painted to remove the shiney!..............

Anyway enough of them boring bits! After work today I dropped in to see the builders to find the engine build has now been completed.
As it currently sits now looking great!...........

I know its only a short update but it seems like a huge milestone has been hit! Ive got to drop the gearbox with them this week so thats ready for bolting up and then it will be time to finish off the bay and start thinking of a time suitable for all to get the motor back in and running. Billing is eight weeks away and I would really like to make it with the car this year! Fingers crossed!!!! Thanks for reading. :)
Nick.

Jeff....... Yeah how time flys! Manifold/turbo is only held on by one nut currently. I think they have just been piecing it all back together and are just mocking up etc.
