Looking very clean and tidy - do you need the modine though if you're fitting an oil cooler

Also, while you're doing all this who's doing my bits

The colour of your shell is a great choice, Ryan.

I have to say Ryan that the manifold is fantastic.... I would like to think if and when I have an engine refresh I could archive something similar, I doubt it but I would like to think it

Looks like a cracking job Ryan, but 2-hours in 6-weeks seems about par for the course.
