My car is coming home:)
Just got word from the RAC, and my car is due back home on the 15th May
booked the day off work, and hopefully, will get the nice shiny new block delivered that day too, so it's going to be a VERY busy week

If the bottom end comes complete youve only gotta throw the heads and fannymoulds on and its sorted
Then for a bigger blower and a mapping session

When I finish my car and have run the engine in, you'll have to come out with me to see what it's like!

yes mate, got my old engine stand out, ready and waiting
just waiting for the car and the 2.5 block to come now, then it's a couple of weeks worth of modding and rebuilding!
Been trying to get hold of Pat Herborn to put a running in map on the car, but he's being a bit elusive
