Well im pretty chuffed to say the least. Ive finally managed to get the engine back in. *happy*

Ive ran the water pump up, and unfortunately one of the welds on the bypass hose is leaking, I think its time to try out some of that ceramic sealant jollop. *oh well*

To do list:

* machine a new crank pulley
* Fit fuel tank
* fit head oil return
* check cam timing
* Fire her up!!!

Mine looks like there is an engine in the car, but infact, there are no internals whatsoever in it *hehe!* the block is still at the machine shop.

How much boost you running this year Matty?

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

Enough to shake to rivets loose on my floor pan. *hehe!*

My map sensor only goes to 21psi, so limiting it to that. Should be more than enough as I was running 10psi and getting 155bhp at 3/4 throttle. lol

Ive got to try and work out how to set up the VEMS boost controller now.

Is yours going to be done for Avon?

Matty, there is a whole new look to Vems, with many more fetures, it might be worth getting together to upgrade to something a little better.

I wont be at Avon, not because that car wont be ready (which it wont), but I do inted to have it together for MITP. Just got the head ache of the down pipe to solve lol

Looking good.

It seems a bit late to be thinking about machining a crank pulley though?

Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

the design shows a distinct lack of imagination,
talk about starting off with a clean sheet of paper, then not bothering to fucking draw on it,lol

Cheers. I machined it up today. Ideally I would of fitted it before putting the engine in, but its only an hours work to bolt it on in place. :)
