Cool welcome! Thanks for the positive coments, it's coming on nicely now my manifold has gone to be welded so should be on the button soon!!! Um no none of the mounts are the same it took me about 3 days to fabricate and get it sat in nicely!this may be harder with the standard inlet? It is a beetel RSI 24v boared to about 3.1 all the 24v are the same bar the r32 same basic engine tho,

yeh love makes us do things like this!!
the leads i will be using are just uprated 12v vr6 also the coil
as it were i don't think i need anything to complete apart from time(don't think you can help with that hahaha)
well i did think about supercharging it but decided against it (until the next rebuild) :twisted: so i would probably change to the low comp pistons
but then i would lose all the induction noise of them ITBs
thanks for the offers any way matey
so what car(s) are you rockin bud?

this is gonna be amazing when its running, looks like you'll be having some serious fun with that spec.
is it much heavier than a stock lump?

bloody hell its cold in the workshop
not much progress at the moment, finished modifying the manifold eventually and got round to custom bending a 2.25" exhaust with an Ashley rear box just a bit of plumbing and she will run!!!!!

have you got any pictures of the mounts you fabricated to save the chassis leg? and the gearbox mount as well.
Are you using the cable change 6 speeder as well?
Im feeling the easy torque nature rather than a crazy 16vT in my other car,im also running a 16v mk1 golf with solid mounts and im looking for something a bit more civilised in my other project

alright mate no not had much in the way of progress at the mo Grant has been busy moving to a new workshop she is just settling in to her 4500sq ft home
no mate i have got a corrado o2a box but i am using a wheel speed sensor as i am running a stack the only thing i can suggest is something similar might sound daft but i have heard of a push bike speedo?
