just thought id post some pics of me build. spec is as follows.

bored to 1293cc
minispares mega pistons
recon s/c box with s/c drops
minispares x pin diff
phase 2 cam
vernier duplex timing gear
cylinder head modified by turbo phil. 36mm inlets 29 exhausts,ported, polished, manganese guides, 28cc chambers.
re built t3 turbo
home made heat shield
supercool 2 core rad
intercooler from ford scorpio
megajolt ignition system
hi-lo suspension with spax shocks
custom made dash

currently running 10 psi, not managed to get it on the rollers yet but hoping for around 130-140 bhp at 10 psi. As this is my daily drive i think that should be plenty.

unfortunately i had a friend respray some of the car for me, and now the colour on the door does not match the rest of the car, so this needs spraying.




















made this at work for the water temp sensor to fit in to. sits inline with the water hose.














few jobs left to do, spray the bonnet, underseal the floor, refurb wheels, sort the paint out.
