Tuesday - Day 11! I had a few set backs again today.... Clutch was NA instead of a TT one, no stainless bolts in WA (hehehe) and injectors weren't firing on the 'test bench'. Long story short, new clutch tomorrow (hopefully), injectors are working thanks to a hammer and good hit on the floor, and I've gone ahead without the stainless bolts just so I can get the car running tomorrow. Photos below:
ooo i know someone who needs an NA clutch.. its practically second hand now right? got some pretty big "ifs" to get it running tomorrow ps FN LOVE those pulley kits.. when are you going to market those mothers.. BUY BUY BUY
Yeah there are some very big IF's but I'm dedicated to the cause! hehehe It's definitely a big ask but come 8.30am, engine will be in the car, just a matter of connecting everything up. Oh I am in need of another gearbox seal, so as long as that's in stock, I can't see why I can't at least crank it over tomorrow. Pulley kits are still 'in production'. I told you some of my suppliers are slow!
nice work Tom!! good choice with the plenum, always good to see something different. are you using stock intake pipes or going with polished?
need some more pics of the intake manifold, with that hammer tone paint. that looks freaking awesome... great work so far....but tick tock!
they look like my old injectors,, could they be my old injector.. ??? what are they tom ???? man this thing is loookkkkkkiiiiiiiiiggggggggg gggoooooooodddddddd. can wait to see it all done and on its way ... keep up the good work ....... BUT HURRY THE PLUCK UP :zlove:

Thanks Chad, yeah it's just a wrinkle motor! wrinkle finish on the valve covers, plenum, throttle bodies & cas. And good spotting on the wiring harness, it's new!
