    Almost done, had to drop the head on tonight so I could make up the coolant return hose for the turbo.

    Finally got the block back from machining last week, it's been bored, decked and line honed. Got it cleaned and painted this week and started the re-build yesterday.



    Crank went in yesterday, turns as smooth as butter now, rods and pistons in today. Just got to get the rest of the ancilleries on and she'll be ready to go back in. Can't wait

    52mm, the boost and fuel pressure are both Glowshift from the USA

    They're multi colour, but the red matches the OEM lights perfectly

    There were a few long standing issues that I wanted fixed and it's turned into this whole other thing with upgrades
