Before:



During:





All that power under the hood:



And all in but before wiring was tidied up:



Where i've thrown the oil cooler for now:



some home made brackets to go on there tonight

And my new rad fan hiding away:




Not driven it yet need to sort the gearlinkage properly, replace my locking wheel nuts, and put the backbox on, starts and ticks over fine though and responds well to the loud pedal, holds a steady 5 bar cold idle oil pressure too which is nice



And a few shots of my gauges... i can't take pictures btw
