Default Whats Everyone doing over easter!?

Hi All

Just thought i'd ask to see what all the good folks are doing over the (hopefully) sunny easter break

i am fitting this :




Bought a UK Sti 8 short block from David @ API with a modified oil pump & cleaned/sprayed it up over last few days.

Also got some 1.6mm sti head gaskets, new modine oil cooler, genuine oil filter & some Gulf oil from Opie Oils, various new intake & manifold gaskets, decat pipe/turbo gasket, halfrauds advanced coolant (pink stuff) good old threebond, new walbro fuel pump & few other bits & bobs.

Going to start with taking the inlet system off tonight so i can clean & spray that up with me ally engine enamel. Can't wait

oh just to ask - anyone recommend how to blank off or join the extra breather pipe that this block has?
if you look at the 2nd pic i took, there is 2 taped up pipe holes on the top - its the pipe on towards the centre (closest one!)
