Hey doooodes

God it's been ages since I got my hands dirty with this. Life got in the way so, starting to get back into the swing of things

Rightie o'! So far..

This is where I am at the moment:

M50 is in!

What's done:

- Entire bottom end rebuilt (crank, bearings, sump blah blah)

- M20 flywheel and clutch fitted

- M20 starter motor

- Getrag 240 manual transmission bolted up

- Cylinder head rebuilt with new everything. Skimmed and pressure tested, all good.

- M20B20 engine arms used

- Porsche 944 brake booster (won't fit yet)

NEED TO GET IT ROTATED OVER A BIT! brake booster won't clear the damn intake manifold <_< going to mess around with the mounts within the week. Also going to time it all up so it will rotate without slamming into the valves :rolleyes:

So yeah, that's what I've been up to. Will update bits n bobs here and there. If anyone else is doing a similar thing, let us know your thoughts/status
