I decided that on my build i was going to rotate the inlet manifold as i like the way it looks and the pipe work seem's to be more straight forwood with a shorter pipe run.I purchased a Cosworth inlet manifold a while back,so i asked Alyn if he could do me a bracket of some sorts to help me with my plan which he already had done before,and i was not disappointed.here are some pics.

TIMING BELT KIT - BELT.



AS PERFORMANCE ALTERNATOR BRACKET.



COSWORTH INLET MANIFOLD.



I have another development to my project well kind of,i gave the wrapping of my pipework or ceramic coating some hard thought and after talking with most tuners in the know and zircotec tech department about performance gains and quality guarantees,i took a big Gulp!!! and decided i would give ceramic coating a try,so me and my wife took the journey down to there unit no pics yet as it is a ten days turnaround but looking forward to seeing my parts back,my project is moving forward slowly but surely.SJ.


ZIRCOTEC HQ.




To be conitnued....

I just received some more parts from RCM and realized that i had not put what turbo i will be using,its funny as that was the first thing i bought after i decided that i was going to do a big project build.


SC GT35R-82 BILLET T3.



RCM ROTATED TURBO WATER AND OIL FEEDS.



RCM AIR FILTER AND TRUMPET.



TIAL EWG.



TIAL BOV.


I have spoken to Neil this week and my build should be rolling any time soon now,with just a few more parts to collect and my spec C heads getting machined,so next info and pictures should be from Neil hopefully.SJ.

Wow sj that's some nice build your doing there
I like the ethics of build it once and do it right without wishing you should of done this that and the other at a later date.
Good man.

Thanks mate,im liking it too,Jura's engine was black as well but i think it was more gloss black.I asked Neil to do mine in matt black as that is going to be the theme of my engine black and silver,you will get the picture fully as it gets built up.SJ.

As I'm going to be doing my build without the factory aircon I thought I would try out the Roger Clark Motorsport super-lite pulleys,and they have turned up,I think they look quite nice really and should make a nice edition to my build.SJ.

RCM SUPER-LITE PULLEYS.

Well my Zircotec pipe work has just turned up and to say I'm pleased with how they have turned out is a massive understatement I think they look superb,and with the added heat properties is a plusI went for the Zircotec Perfomance range as the guarantee is 3 years any use I.E race etc... So should see my car pretty well over the years.SJ.

you certainly are, if I had a hat id take it off to you.

have you considered doing the hawkeye centre console swap as its easy and cheap to do and it would compliment your awesome engine build.

what's the plans exterior and brakes wise??
