Keeping myself busy by making a new coolant system top up do-hicky.
I'm having a remote coolant cap to make it the highest point in the system which will hopefully help the bleeding process.
Here is the progress so far.

Nearly there! Just waiting for it to cool before the final part!
EDIT: finished!!


What do you think? Let me know!

Don't shoot me .....
I'm going to be getting some locking flush aero catches.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/AeroCatch-...item53fa5c2723
Reason being is due to me mindlessly cutting out the part which connects the bonnet catch to the bottom radiator stay the radiator stay at the top now flexes and doesn't allow me to close the bonnet without a second person supporting it.
Rather than fart around with intricate brackets around the rads to put some strength back in and increasing the weight on the front end more I've decided it'd be easier to go with these.
Plus I won't have to slam it shut everytime!

Management system picked out, buying at the end of the month.
A place to fit it sorted, goes in at the end of the month.
Silicone hoses bought for coolant system, stainless not bought.
Locking bonnet catches bought.
Fuel system researched, gathering parts this month funds depending.
Feels like I'm making progress again!!!

Update time!!!
More silicone has arrived!
Won't go for wiring at the end if this month like I hoped however I do plan on getting the fuel system fully completed ready for the wiring (which is always a good idea) and whilst doing that I hope to progress with the coolant piping.
Having a nightmare sourcing the reservoir for the supercharger cooling system.
Also need to put a clutch in.
Didn't fit the old one as the friction plate looked a little tired so I'll be getting a new one from the states, £40 for the plate, £60 for shipping, still cheaper than UK prices!
Adaptor for gear stick to gearbox needs making, easy.
Whilst clutch is being done the master cylinders for said clutch will be swapped to a .6" willwood iirc.
Two coil packs on the O/S head will be slightly relocated to give the new CMC some space.
Also need a cable throttle body and to make a mount for the throttle cable for the point where you adjust the tension on said cable.
Fit the locking bonnet catches.
There's actually still quite a bit to go! Nothing too daunting though.
Slight set back of not having a two poster ramp at my disposal at the minute.


Lol @ Ash!!

Oops wrong car ... Teehee!
Drift car painted to stand out a little as it just seemed to blend into the background.
Ash, my bro and the Gf helped and did a sterling job!
