Are you keeping the Cosworth Wheels !? Personally i think a set of MO's would look spot on.
Also, what spec is the lump going to be !?
I will be keeping the cossie wheels just now if i do get after market wheels it will be mo`sQuote:

Sounds awesome....
Spec of engine with pics of engine, size of cooler, etc etc.
Fair play to you - thats gonna be something not that far off the boost beast in a straight line and considerably more useful round the twisty stuff! You'll have to bring it south of the border for us southerners to gawp at:)
looks totally awseome! when is it's first outing planned for?
jesus crist...this project will be great!
Right Quick list of engine spec. Bottom end has 7.4-1 low comp pistons wire rung block grpA headgasket gasket. BD14 inlet and exhaust cams and adjustable pullys. Turbo little bigger than T4 with external wastegate. sweedish plenum. 850cc injectors. Genuine RS500 cooler and RS500 size boost pipes (alloy)and the normal 3"exhaust system and filter 3bar map sensor motorsport leads bla bla is that enough for you Ashtal??? Oh and you can see the cooler on the pics it fitted on the car just now as there is less chance of it being damaged on the car for nowQuote:

I'm shocked at the hassle you've had from Magnum :( , I normally recommend people to go there, because the service I've had from them has been A1. I ordered arches and a tailgate and got them in less than a week, in fact even earlier than promised :)
Well im still waiting on the rest of my kit coming thats over 2 month now :roll: and the guy im dealing with dave just keeps lying and forgetting he hasQuote:

On a lighter note, Good luck with the build, will be an animal when finished :thumb:
Cheers mate that is the plan anyway hahaQuote:

Been waiting around 10 weeks myself. They just lie out their backside "we sent the arches to the wrong person" ??? WTF.Quote:

A1 on all the effort and work gone in to this chap keep it up hoping to see a good result pretty soon then when you hoping to offer up the motor and see how it all looks. how is the engine refresh going you got that back together to?
regards mike
Well where do i start. Im still waiting for the rest of the kit to arrive so no progress with the body. The fitment of the kit is ok i would say not 100% but ok. The engine will be going in the car as soon as i get it back together i just got my new pistons today so will get it all put back together tomorrow night fingers crossed anyway. I have every new gasket and bearing for it sitting waiting for it so i cant see that being a problem. With any luck the engine and box will be in this time next week:D Wont get anything done over the weekend tho as im of to peterborough for a car show all weekend that will be good but does mean no progress:wtf:Quote:

glad to see the pics back looking awsome hope i get to this this in person
quality work
love the build mate, this is going to be one awesome weapon...
one thing, i just want to make sure. i am seeing things and the area circled is just a bit of the old gasket or maybe a hair lol. just looks so much like a crack in that pic ?
http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i9...52008365-1.jpg
Beasty...
Whats the crack with having it ready for PVS? It'll be the only time I'll probably get to see it :(
I saw that "line" on the pic as well, hope its not a crack! Are you going to run a screamer pipe from the external wastegate?
Yes i did see that there was a couple of them it was just a bit of s**t you can see another bit just under the threaded hole for the head bolt. it was all gone once the block face was cleanedQuote:
