I'm sure there is a thread on here about which parts are best to transfer across, but you are using a 1.1 shell, so I'm guessing you're taking all the body kit too?

It's going to be a sleeper, so it'll be without the vts kit just the wheels and try and keep the externals looking as standard as possible

Haven't had much motivation latley but found that y insurance is due or renewal at the begging of march therefore I need to get a move on with things!

Come down and started cleaning the engine up and removing the rocker covers, inlet manifold etc....




Planning on fully stripping the head and rebuilding within the next week!

Love the progress, love the IM Axle got myself one too, mine is lowered 50mm on a flatarch and looks low enough.

Cheers mate, can't wait to get it on the road now !

I've been at it every evening this week so far.
I have removed the inlet, cylinder head, removed valves + valve stem oil seals.
I took the head to get skimmed today and collected this afternoon which left me the fun task of lapping the valves in this evening :,(
