My 172 engined mk1. Needs a few odds and sods sorting out as well as a thorough (sp) shakedown.

wish they'd hurry up, not as if they are busy down there
Want to take on some more work? lol
/Sarcasm x
aw look at me s**t box tucked up in its little sawdust nest
quick update
head is off, sump is off, turbo is off, rods and pistons are out, there's an empty block with a gearbox attached to it dangling in the engine bay
it leaves at 7am thursday morning
turns out the valves and valve seats are damaged, hopefully i can find my spare vel satis head!
This is going to be tough to get this one done!

Obviously I'll do a proper write up when I'm back from France which will probably crash the server but I'm lost for words.
Currently writing this on my bb sat with a coffee to calm my nerves, not even a case of me playing up its that close cut. Yeh we should have had more time, yeh I should have gone in the clio... But I didn't.
Trusted in fred and I just hope it pays off.
Watched him last night pull the block apart and pick out things that were rediculous. It was also the damage that he said it was all along. No-one has heard from him today and no-one really knows what's going on. Unit is closed, phone is off and I've had calls from various pals in the RS departments of Renault ringing up asking just what's going on...
To do a full engine build in this space of time usually wouldn't be clever nor wise, but not as if we can stop now and my tears if it died would flood the midlands canals.
Gotta thank sam at this point so far, Elliot and adam at Renault wolverhampton for their help and efforts so far too. Also everyone offering high5's and the various ''FML's'' off CS w*****s
AFAIK it will have a Velsatis modified F4rT head with an irish assortment of valves and a prototype BTMperformance head gasket that fred has been developing.
Will it work? God knows.. Am I scared... God yes. Have I learnt more about cars this last two days and now consider myself an RS specialist that will open a workshop called BTMbirchTec.. No.
Be reete, fred my sanity and health is in your hands.
