it comes down to experience and knowledge really. my first one took weeks to get running right, the last one I did took 1 weekend, that includes removing old engine, building the new one from a bare head and block to a complete engine and fitting it. started and ran fine from the 1st turn of the key.

Problem I'm having is that one day the car will run spot on , the next it will misfire and generally drive shit.

Addressing all the problems one by one so hopefully another couple of weeks !!

And phil I want to at least bring it to PVS next year , finally see some of the cars on here in the flesh !!
