As i said on msn benn looks awsome hope to see it at pvs

Never scratched it before...

Cant get nice tidy bends by hand i find, been using the engine stand to get nice bents on...lol

Thankfully they are all made now bar the two most rear ones.

As long as i can get the gearbox painted i might fit the engine next weekend.

once again benn amazin work and great ideas..

Keep your chin up dude! Despite the pain in the ass brakelines it'll all be worth it when its back together. :)

Dude, looking good. I share your frustrations, when I fitted my engine I was pooing myself about scratching the bay. I went in from the top, gearbox first.

I found that the pipe bending machine left marked on the pipes themselves, done them by hand in the end. Good results are achievable...

Keep up the good work.

I actually found it very satisfying making the lines by hand.

Only my 1st attempt was poor.

Thank you, Not worried about fitting the engine tbh, done it a few times before, first time i was bit time!

My benders not bad, but i've been using my engine stand handle to bend them now..lol Gives a nicer bend.
Those are done by hand? They are very very tidy.
