    The original Crank was found to be ever so slightly bent so a replacement had to be sourced... A common issue?
    From witch Engine did you get the Crank on the picture?

      Not 100% sure what motor the crank was from but it was cross referenced as correct by the guys that sourced it. Any particular reason?

        Brief update. Had some time to have a go at some more fault diagnosis this weekend. Checked all wiring and carried out continuity tests - all ok. We're getting power to the coils but no spark from the plugs... Having removed the plugs it was clear two had fired but the others were still as new. Still a bit stumped.. We're going to try another ignition amplifier because the existing one may have been damaged when the engine bay was power steam cleaned. I know they should have been bagged but stupidly it didn't cross my mind at the time.. Could this be the cause??

        Otherwise the Prospeed exhaust looks mighty fine! Just wish I could hear what it sounds like!!

          Sounds like you've found it with those symptoms, you can check the ignition outputs by swapping the plugs from the head over, if the remaining 3 fire but not the original 2 then bingo!

          Have the exhaust tweaks been made now then?
