Ah, I've mentioned Race Engine Design on the quest for power thread - they use a RaceTech ECU and can also fit ITBs....

Nice one Man, it's good to see the pain has paid off.

I hope the new engine is going well

Love the pics and the write up!

Firstly, I'm really sorry to hear about the engine letting go. That is such bad luck.

That is such a good write up, with some excellent pictures. It would seem that Chris is indeed a man of many talents.

I can't imagine the stress when you were lifting that engine out of your car.

All of this completed on your drive is pretty damn amazing imho.

Glad you're now running fine, have you noted much difference between this engine and the original?

Good photos Man. Very interesting. Nice to see you were not on your own for such a job.

Nice to know that this has got better and I hope the rest will follow.

I didn't know the old one had blown.

I thought you'd been off here due to selling up - or was that just testing the water so to speak?

Glad you are sorted and back on the road Man

I was serious about selling up, but my car didn't take the news too well and had a heart attack...

So she's a keeper now.

Man glad to see you got your engine sorted and one of the few GPW's in the UK is back on the road! Chris delivers again!

I wondered where you had gone but presumed you had sold up! Nice to see it back on the road, excellent write up.
