Main problem is that the engine was faffed, but new one will be collected on tuesday next week so the fun will begin again!
Tried and tested bodykit, looked crap for what we wanted, stuk original one back on. FINE! Stipped out bucket seats, harnesses. Rear strut brace and slatted grill coming soon. Some compomotive alloys also coming soon!

Just for you dan, a revised list...

We are going to take things abit slower for now. Want to get the engine in and running before we get it up to desired bhp.

mount and shaft kit - Mtech kit - LMF £560
PAS mount - LMF- £60

new flywheel and crank pulley - lightweight - CHRIS ASTLEY £97 and £190

clutch - uprated - £170?

mains/flywheel/inlet/exhaust bolts from vauxhall £30??

arp rod bolts - £50

a good exhaust system (2.5in) - £300 ish (manifold at later date)
big brake kit - £315

Wossner pistons £ 400

Possibly if u want to (recommended) - Steel rods - £400

£2400ish


But for now, all we need is...

Pistons, Rods if u want, arp rod bolts, mains/flywheel etc bolts, clutch and light flywheel + pulley

So thats about £1300. BUT... wont need clutch and flywheel/pulley for a month or so at least. Making it about 800-900 with steel rods
