Today I got up nice and early and got a lot of work done on the engine, now it’s almost good to go back in the car! But there is one thing that I can’t get my head around. When I fitted the flywheel it looked like it would not go all the way on, I have taken some pics to see what you think.

Well it's been a long time since I looked at the car. Last day I had on it I got the eng in, then I had to go on a promotiom course with work in south Wales. I am hoping to get some work done on it at weekends so I can get to Brooklands this year. I just need to recover from some mild frost nip in my finger tips and big toes I have started posting on Instagram also my name on there is turbomk1golf
