Colin,

what the frick is the manifold on this? it looks plastic!





Now that would be telling. That said, I am pretty sure I have at some point said what it is. It is aluminium. Amazing what a coat of satin black paint can do to the looks of things *tongue*


On a side note, I have done little on this in the past 18 months what with the mother in law passing away, taking in the brother in law as his wife kicked him out as he nursed his mother in the last weeks of her life, dealing with Audi and having the engine replaced, having all the windows and doors replaced, replacing all the facias and gutters, repairing the roof on the house along with all the other bollox that gets in the way such as work (a lot of work!) birthdays, holidays and the general can't be arsed times in your life, brings me to where I am now lol.

So, things are done, getting done, and I will be starting in February after the christmas lul, this car will be on the road for 2015 show season! lots of goodies piling up on the shelf in anticipation*Clapping*

So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'...

Really tidy work. Nothing garish. Nothing out of place.

Will it still be VEMS? What's left to do? It looks almost ready to run.

Hi Sprocket

Hope all is well.

Firstly your engine build is very impressive and I'm really interested in doing a similar build to you engine wise (equally spacing the cylinder bores etc).

Would you mind sharing some of your experiences with me?

Cheers

Nathan

And I can't wait!

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.
VEMS + 12 PSI + Liquid Intercooler = Small Bore FUN!
