Looks good jef. You need to look at getting some cooling ideas for that turbo and the cone being bang up against the header tank
There's some of my DIY heat control in my profile album

I put in my original post 1 and 3 as Jef's car is ver1 and he using ver3 heads but it is the same bolt layout for version's 1-2-3-4 so you can take any of though's version heads and put them on car's with your existing manifold as Jef has in this instance,a ver1 manifold bolted onto ver3 heads.
Oh and i will soon be putting ver4 heads on my version 2 which i will also use my existing manifold.

idprefer to buy new bits and peices where i can, ie header tanks, pulley covers, just not sure where to get, and id like a chrome radiator shroud, but dont know if the ones at scoobyworld would fit as mu alloy rad is slighty thicker than standard?
the cars got a new 2.5, v3 heads, forged pistons, cometic head gaskets, acl bearings, uprated oil pump, sc46 turbo, simtek ,rcm headers, 6 speed, 500lbft clutch. mapped by bob rawle
fun but still need some work doing - bad knocking from front got cdf arb links to go on , think the whole susp took a kicking over that bad weather tbh

the v3/v4 heads are oval and also under the rocker cover so don't think the square coil pack will fit into an oval head casting
+1 Prodrive.
Yes inlet manifolds are different but the connection to the cylinder head to manifold is the same. The difference between the manifolds 1 - 2 and 3-4 is the shape of the runners with the 3-4 having the inlet tract under the runners and also 3-4 has different throttle cable layout and single coil pack lugs.

I have some TE37's which look similar to Moleys and my car is also Silver so I'm seriously tempted to get mine sprayed up White now.

The bay looks fine, I would go with a better alternator cover, something to cover the battery and the fusebox and go with a nice rad shroud, get rid of that pink strut brace and a bigger filter
