Swansea boyo!

My trigger wheel parts arrived Friday along with my block coming back after having a hone andmy crank regrind. But then not much happened due to three major mess ups. Firstly we were let down with the engine crane, secondly Carl didn't order a new oil pump LIKE HE WAS TOLD and thirly minispares gave me the wrong set of piston rings on Saturday. So there was no way it was going back in this weekend. But I took my dash to pieces and fitted the new gauges in the center binnacle and they are looking good, like they should be there which is super important to me! We started building the block up as far as we could and that was pretty much it. I won't be doing anything apart from spending money for the next two weeks so it will be down to Carl to keep updating. I'll upload a few photos when I eventually get internet back at home!

Well then, bit of an update!
Engine had come back from the machine shop with a hone on the bores, and 10 thou regrind on the mains and big ends.
Ended up with the wrong piston rings, had to order some from minispares main office because my local one didn't have them in stock (998+ rings, none in stock I tell you *Confused* )
So all we managed to get done was fit the crank, cam and cam followers before Shauna went back home. Picked up a new oil pump in the week, and the rings I received in the post this morning, so when I got back from work I cracked the ratchet out. ( I'd be lying if I said spanners, I didn't use any! )
So at the end of play tonight we have a short engine which has a crank, cam, followers, all 4 pistons on rods with new rings, and an oil pump! I'm hoping tomorrow to get the block stuck onto the box, get the flywheel back together with the new clutch plate and get the timing gear back on, hoping that the engine can go back in this weekend, it'll be one of the bigger things done and out of the way then.

Thanks for the offer Tom, but we have a trigger wheels setup now, PM me with a price if you could as I may be interested for my own engine, Cheers.

Going for a boring black rocker this time!

You could pop the front off that AFR gauge and paint the needle white *smiley*

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

That's a good setup with the gauges though, all the information you need is there without killing the original look. Good job!

Red for danger! Tbh I might pop the chrome off and steal one from and old gauge if it will fit because it's different and it will end up bugging me after a while :(

Thanks! I had words with Carl about the rev counter I'm putting in NOT staying in front of the steering wheel after it's been run in. I will have to think hard about where to put my boost gauge where it's visible but not obvious because I'd like to keep that in there. I've never really been worried about it exploding or something like that, just the look inside haha, I like my clean decluttered dash too much *tongue*

I love the engine build by candle light.. Can wait to see it at Combe...

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

Haha Carl being my slave and putting it back in this weekend I hope ready to order any last bits and get the DP made and start him up the weekend after, his reward will be driving it around (running it in) for a week or so before it hits the RR on the 26th! I am hopeful we make it to Combe now but he really is nothing special compared to some, especially after I dropped a headgasket on the wing at IMM haha. Poor guy has some war wounds atm :(, paint is the next thing to be sorted after the engine.
