Nearly done! Been having trouble getting a semi gloss black for the headers. Spraying soon! Bit of deja vu with the headers (see pics!

) Going to video the engine before the headers cover everything up. The instructions are wrong in that the intake is on the wrong way round so the breather tube has had to go against the manifold rather than stuck in a hole

I am well impressed with this kit and would recommend it to anyone!

Da-Dah!

Here's the starter motor! You can see the motor drive belt if you look closely. Next step, video for YouTube, paint the headers, get them all glued on then barter for a shelf space

. Don't know how I'm going to keep it dust free. Need a big old perspex box. Any ideas? Will also get a pic next to a pound coin and next to an MMA mug for you size fetishists

Well done Kev, im impressed with the detail . Youve got more patience than me. Mine would be stuck solid with glue fingerprints on the clear bits . Bravo old chap
