Things are starting to look bad the car is not going to be finished for the wedding as the engine is playing up badly so to solve this am going for an engine conversion. I think i am going to go for the G60 engine as i have found a company in cambridge that do it at a nice price and suply all the parts so will update more when things start to move along.

Not sure on what parts you need, but thought i'd comment to show people are reading and taking an interest in your project. Car looks to be coming along nicely now, shame about the engine problems. I suppose it will be better in the long run anyway. Keep up the good work.
