Fcuking long story, but after waiting over 2 weeks i drove to Freds on Monday (over 300 mile round trip) to be told it was posted and it work be with me today/yesterday. Still nothing mate, proper pissed off.

Cheers Alex, HMS has done a epic job. :D That and the engine cover, thank you im very happy. :cool:

James/Andrew just a bit of info. Andrew did the work on my head and also gave it a skim, (8 tho i belive) the problem is that i can not get the tensioner marks to line up. I put some plastic shims between the idle roller and the cambelt untill i got the marks to line up. The total thickness of...

The BCs look like a cracking bit of kit mate. What size spacer are you going to run in the rear?

I Iove Robs "don't give a fcuk attitude" tbh it looks good when rob brought it to my house and the wheel's are alot lighter in the flesh. Anyway its a track ****, who cares. :cool:

421's £600 + cambelt kit, aux, dephaser + mapping say good buy to the best part of £1400.

Yeah probably mate, lucky i don't use it much. :o

Flol, no mate was just showing how clean it is inside while i was fitting the ARPs. :o Because it has cost me almost £200 to heat wrap the manifold, i was told that the 182 manifold might hit the ARB or sub frame so with this in mind i didn't want the engine moving and messing up my wrap. :)

Right im off to Freds at BTM tomo to collect the larger idler pulley (he said that he had posted it to me 2 weeks ago) that i need so that the cam belt adjuster marks line up, after putting some plastic shims between the cam belt and the idler pulley it works out that the pulley i need needs to...

Epic as always mate. I love the oem spec. :)

That looks proper mint. Hope you get it sorted, please keep us up dated. :)

Flol, yes it does. :D

You are fcuking unbelievable. :)

When it was racing with us it had a MiniSport 7 port head, if i remember correct when they sent the heads away to be ported the casting on the 7 port wasn't very good. The castings where so poor that they got through quite a few. The car is epic and the Deaths are a very nice pair of chaps.

If you like your wheels rubbing on the arch liners everytime you turn then they are fine. :dapprove:

I thought you might Tony, figures of 50k to build it though.

Music to my ears. :D
