Cheers Gents.

I'm on hol's until the 29th, My engine should be out by next Monday....The new donk should be up & running by the second week of Jan at the latest, If all goes to plan that is..... It all depends on how long it takes Neil Preping, machining & re-coning the heads.

The only worry is that my clutch is stuck at Heathrow due to the weather over there.....C'mon DHL do your best!!

Ha ha Stace...Who said Rome wasn't built in a day?!

P.s I have short tracked my build a little, I'm having someone assemble my new motor for me & it will be returned as a bare long motor. Two reasons, 1. I won't be able to rush it and FK something up, 2. warranty.

It's still being built to my specs as originally planned, I'm still doing the final assembly, all the installation & tuning.

I'm pretty amped about it all & can't wait to start the engine removal process....

Nice work mate, can't wait for the updates! Now add 2 weeks to 6 months to the eta above and you should find a finish time in there somewhere
