The cost difference in America make it well worth carrying home.

You did a grand job uncle
Still got to trim the bumper back a bit more as it's not sitting 100% correct at the moment but i can do that when i put the edge trim on and the mesh

Well if your target is 400/500 bhp go for 555 bhp and you can become the Squadron Leader of the 555 Wagon Squadron.
Great Project Ian and as you are the RO for Kent then you really should have some Bl**dy Hot Pistons under the bonnet.

Not sure exactly what you mean, the whole engine is being fitted in my wagon by Zen, been told just a few little mods to make it fit

i think Steven is asking the same question I asked when you first brought it; because the heads\IM are from an early car they are not compatible with your current loom...I'm going to be using a Solaris to enable me to run VVT heads, not sure if you can use it to fix this issue easily too?
