Well I've pretty much finished the motor it just has to be fitted and the radiator and hoses connected.
Huge thanks to paul and his awesome billet pulley's he made up for me.
The belt tensioners and a/c bracket are made from sheet ally I got from the hobby shop, the belts are electrical tape. All c/c welcome.
The dissy and leads are detail master, the fuel lines are detail master compression fittings and braided line with fuse wire for the hard line.

Very Happy

Trent, before you start it, just check Leads 7 & 8 - I think they are the wrong way around

Great job
