Thanks lads :)

Received my box of Goodies from Bill today :D







Box contained JE forged 82.5mm 9:25.1CR Pistons :)

Block will need boring out to fit pistons but will take to 1.9L :) (1847cc)







IE Tucson Forged rifle drilled Rods and Mahle Motorsport Main Bearings



Calico coated conrod bearings

Well happy with the parts from Bill top services as always :D

As got a few bits for the rebuild (which is still along way off)



Head gasket, large port inlet gasket, 2x exhaust manifold gasket, rocker gaskets, cam and cranks seals



New inner and outer cv joints :) also had a drive shaft from RobbieC (thanks again mucka)



Timing chain tool



Light weight horn haha

With all the parts arriving I thought I'd strip the AGU head down but can't find my Ribe head bolt tool. So just striped the cams out for now

Picked up a coolant flange and thermostat housing for me engine build. Small progress



Next will be to order ARP head and main stud kit along with crank and cam pulley bolts.
Still got loads too buy for it but I've decided not to do valves/springs ATM as I'm planning on a K04 hybrid it will be outta puff I'm guessing about 7200 so standards should be ok hopefully?! Planning on using the 500-1000k on some new wheels after Xmas.

Anyway did bit tonight.

As I'm skint after buying the pistons etc I had to make it out of plastic rather than real carbon but will buy a sheet when I can and swop it over.

Trail fit





Fitted





Lights on





Need to get another facia and just tidy it up.

When I get another race heater and it fitted I plan on having a gauge here



More than likely water meth gauge ;) with my kill switch to the left.

Had another bash tonight, have no idea why input 4 holes in the last one :confused:

Shit dark pics but it fits well and curves with the facia nicely



Not finished just yet as me bloody oil temp gauge has stopped working strangely :( hopefully just a wiring fault
