Ahh right, didn't notice the block was black. Think black and silver are the two best colour for engines. Great work mate.
What strut brace is that?

Sparco mate, got it off Nick J, finish is awesome as you would expect from Nick.
Looking awesome. Coming together really well. Nice one.
Sounds a bit silly, but can you not get the Vernier powdercoated black or silver, just looks od being blue?
Does look superbly clean though, I like!
Cheers, I could but once the cover is on it won't been seen anyway.
Oh didnt realise you were running a cover...
Just being picky here edd but the strut tops could do with a coat of silver paint. lol but I'm sure you've allready got this in mind!!
engine bay looks spot on mate
:thumb:
Getting some alloy adjustable jobbies for there lol
Looks fantastic, is there any power gains using the Irmsher injection over 40s, and what power are you looking at?
I expect 100bhp ish, 150bhp, I hope when I put the 1300 turbo engine in that I have.
Thats bloody good, was expecting more like 85bhp
looking great as always EDD !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Absolutely brilliant, really like the theme of the colours. Think the oil dipstick needs to be silver as well ;) oh this is me...

Loving the engine bay Edd great work mate thats stunning..
lol @ southie
Edd out of pure curiosity ( as I've never seen that injection system before ) what injectors are they? And what is the pressure and flow rate?
I know the GSI White ones are 155/min at 3 bar but those look cream,
no idea what they tbh lol
Irmscher injection uses cavalier 18E parts so expect there they same as those, do look alot like XE ones tho
A little tip if you need it Edd if you get some 4mm i.d. silicon hose it slides over the dip stick and makes it look a little better imo
If you can be bothered getting the part no ( if there Bosch ones ) I'll look it up, I'm just being too bloody nosey lol
number on the injectors is 0 280 150 208Quote:

* 0280150208 * 155cc/min @ 3 bar * 16.2ohms
or 133cc/min @ 2.5 bar ( 36.25 psi)
just FYI :)
not sure on what anti roll bar/tie bar set up to go for ?
got a SR set up and the thicker GTE set up, is the GTE going to make that much difference ? or just stick with the SR stuff ?
