Well just home from pulling a mammouth shift on car, 95% of the way there, Still got aux belt/power steering pump/ few connections and gear/tx/diff oil to change, Hopefully should be running by the morning, then spend next week running in, Russ paton will be mapping it next friday:- , Looks like I got my measurements just right when fitting the wideband lamda (Look at clearance with tx box!!)

YES!!! She runs, Sounded like a bag of spanners at first, but sounding fine after heat built up, tappet or two still sticking though, and there all new!!
Pics tommorow, Lots of driving ahead of me this week, have to do 300-400 miles before mapping on friday
