Right then! Update... most know, the engine i fitted was knocking like a b*****d. thought it was tappets to begin with. but alas...no

Sooo I decided to stop *****ing about and look for a propper F7R A 700 which i found in telford with a man called dan.

A trip to telford found this blokey with a car in primer paint... tbh it looked a bit of a dog, the stupid sod had removed the sunroom using liquid swartz. :mrgreen: Think the car was going to get painted Brands Hatch Red? but i dunno.

Annnyway

here she is.....filthy isnt she

I ordered some parts

My Group N Skuttle Induction

Oil Cooler and Mocal Sandwich plate with UPRATED oil lines.....330BAR or 4750psi

I moved the car into the workshop and started to remove things... lol

Moments later

mmm still clean

Inferior F7R D 710

My polished stuff had started to dull

Soo a quick going over with my custom washing machine motor and polishing mop later

First inlet has been done other three remain dull.... hard to photo graph

I even gave my knob a polish

at which point harvy and lesley turned up.... admittedly i was quite embarresed to of been caught poolishing my nob.... but this was quickly diffused.....

Harv works like a mad man..... In fact i feel useless in comparrisson.

Hubs were removed and shafts out, then all unessesaty things dissconnected then crane in and hitched up with an old seatbelt and engine removed......

we then spent a few hours removing all bits off the old one and fitting to the new one.


Old and New

New engine complete at which point we for the first time realised we should both stop and go to bed as it was 4AM!!

From this

To this

The next morning yes MORNING 8am to be precise after a mere 3 hours sleep, we got back to the workshop and got cracking.

Removed the interior seats.......

had to change the clutch pedal and it was easier to hoover lol

Then lesley got her funk on with my willy wheels.

and now started to re-fit the engine.

with an added 4th mount.....

as you can see here.... lesly got very busy

engine in

First start Video for Justin

Ok updates....

Went for MOT

Failed...no supprises

001 : offside front position lamps wrng colour? :S
002: offside front headlamp aim too high
003: nearside front headlight aim too low
004: nearside fron brake hose fouls wheel on full lock
005: nearside wheel is excessivly worn

how the frig do i sort out the lights?! no idea im gonna get them to do it and just fit a non blue bulb!

Ive had some willy shocks delivered to me now aswell..... wassnt going to fit new tyres with camber like that tbh! So some nice willy items will do.

Going to my mates next week for tyres and balencing, should my tyres arive in time.

Brake hose will be fixed with a cable tie or one of those round spacers i have on the other side hose?

Then its retest time and on to stage 2
