Looks great buddy, eurowise's conversion kit looks like a proper job, was looking at these when i considered a VR for mine.

I'm going to get it running and on the road mot etc then will take a week of work whip the engine out and get to minting it! Will be getting a lot of it powder coated at a local company very close to me :) Then will be looking into some forced induction :) :) :)

That sits really well in the bay !

I think the poly bushed engine mounts may shake your teeth a bit :-)
