Didn't realise it's been this long since my last update, so anyway in the limited free time I seem to get these days, I've now got the drive train in and hooked up, still working on the wiring loom for the injection and computer. Made the fuel tank and plumbed up the fuel system all ready to go. and at the moment busy designing all the brackets and pulley's. So plodding along slowly but heading in the right direction..

Jacko I didn't actually make the injection, I did plan to but I picked up this set pretty cheap

another step forward, finished making the pulley's and brackets for the new serpentine belt setup, took a bit of guess work to get things all lined up but we got there, now ploughing into the new wiring harness, lucky my neighbour is an auto electrician :grin:

Finally got to fire up the engine this week, only done a base tune at this stage to set up ecu and test the injection, seem quite eager and really responsive. Found I have a misalignment issue with the pulley system I made, I think the pwr steer bracket maybe flexing under the tension, so I'll have to take a look at that.
Sad that Boofhead is no longer with us as he was quite interested in this setup

hopefully the you tube link works
