New Kent AST2 camshaft kit
New Irmscher vernier pulley

Borrowed a decent honing tool so should sort that shortly so it can be completed.
Picked up another tasty item....

Prob best known as a Mk1 Astra GTE tool kit, they were actually an accessory for Sporty model Novas aswell.
Its brand new & unused.

I still get a deep down sick with jealousy feeling everytime i look at that shell lol
My collection of gm parts helps ease it though as you're not the only one with chassis rails! Also got both rear quarters and a complete front panel/crossmember. Just the rest of the car to find lol
-
But where do you find all these bits?
I won't tell anyone else!!! (really, I wont!)
-
Knowing the right people, asking the right questions, Ebay & a bit of good old luck.
The missus calls it an obsession!
-
are you not putting the irmscher cam in then? just read from beginning, fantastic work, looks amazing, really like the look of your irmscher four branch manifold! ace!

No, not putting the Irmscher cam or exhaust manifold in yet, will save them for the next engine ;)
I will run the AST2 & a new Lexmaul stainless manifold I have for now.
