Default a little up date on our project

we're slowly getting closer to getting the engine back into the car. i'll post a few progress pics.

the engine will be runing a standard bottom end with a baffled sump. spoon cooling, head gasket, thermostat ect
i'm just taking the head to prodrive today to have a bit of reworking done. the head will then be mounted with spoon valve springs and toda spec a2 cams. from the induction side i think i'm going to opt for some titan roller barrel throttle bodies these will need to adapted to fit and will come with fuel rail and injectors complete.
the exhaust will have to be custom made so therefore equal lenght manifold will be a must and a side exit pipe in true lotus seven style.
this will all be controled alpha management which is a sister company of webber that is now producing all of the webbers fuel injection setups.

things are slowly but surely coming together. i'll hopefully have the engine in the car before xmas

Prodrive!

ITB's will work well with a high duration cam and engine / exhaust mods.

Coating the block looks nice

What mods have gone on at the fitler? Looks like the VTEC solenoid has gone walkies?

around 500 I'd estimate. Exact figures -who cares?

Rear damping's gonna have its work cut out.

Yes I'd like a go, please!
