Yup, looks like lots of work.

When the case was split, why was not the outside of the case cleaned? Looks like all the original factory coatings were kept on?

I noticed on the shot of the oil pump going back in, the duct tape was still on the pump. Why was that tape there, to plug the holes? I would be afraid of the residue from the glue...

Interesting for sure. Thanks for posting!

Cheers,

Mike

Nice.
How much HP do you expect?
Single plug/Stock injectors? 5b fpr?
mechanical lifters?
Who's programming?

Thanx!

I am coming to terms with the fact that you guys have significantly more money than I do. Those shots looked great.

4k actually. I've gotten to watch this build in person from start to finish and can tell you that this is an incredible car. I got to go along with RAC's in-house Stig on a shakedown ride and this car pulls as hard as my cgt and just keeps on going. interior work is first rate as well.
