Awesome work dude, love the red cage to the blue.

That engine's looking sweet now, rocker and belt cover looks awesome

thank you, just need the plug cover the correct colour.

Looking sweet mate, it's like I'm watching my build a few similar parts and colour schemes Now I know what my engine will look like with these colour

Is that a clutch kit for a F28? I need friction material for an F20 but need the pressure plate from a F28. Any chance your mate can find out if you can buy them seperately?

copy cat, copy cat, sitting on the door mat. oj. the colour scheme was a bit hit and miss. i couldnt imagine how it would look and it has to look right sat in the bay. but i think it should.

Cant wait to see this complete will look amazing

thanks, next month should be the big push to get it ready for june.

Awesome work dude, love the red cage to the blue.

sure does, havnt gone to ott on red parts this time round

update

received a few things today, the correct cambelt kit, exhaust stud kit and ARP flywheel bolts.



armed with these i went down to my garages. found a problem with the TX autosport vernier pulleys though, they dont have the correct timing marks on them. one didnt have anything and the other had a mark in the wrong tooth.

i made my own marks going by the standard pulleys and set the timing like that. fitted the belt, tensioner and guide pulley.



have got the XE inlet cam on standard markings for now, when i have it dyno'd i can get them to play around for max power. still getting a gain from it being on standard timing.

after that i fitted the exhaust stud kit. rather tasty.



i have been wire wheeling the gearbox ready for some paint, just need to find the the correct wire brush to get into all the corners.

thanks for looking

Ahhhhh have been looking for that exhaust stud kit, where from?

50pound is alot of money but it looks good and my head was off a XE so didnt have the correct studs.

[Nova_Tek]

You're right it is a lot of money Shall check on eBay see if I can find some, maybe even go to Vaux and ask there see what it is with trade discount.

Either that or some copper effect paint

[brucer]

i rang vaux before i bough it. was like 1.28 per stud and 2.24 per copper dude.

if you only need the copper nuts then should work out cheaper. you'll need twelve in total.

[Nova_Tek]

That's £42.24 from what you said, is that with trade discount? Pretty sure the studs are ok but I'll need to double check.

[brucer]

£50.68 with vat.

i presume so, i rang up and said bruce from saint martins motor services, i am after....

[Nova_Tek]

Coolio, will hunt around and see what I can find.
