Aircon. Can't live without it. Also can't afford to import the twin setups with the exchange rates

Okay cool thanks for answering.
Yes exchange rate is insane at this stage.

When are you planning on having the new blower setup sorted?

Finally had some time to work on it again.

Finalised cam timing and vanos install. Success first time round

I learn something new everytime i do it. Just helps saving time.

Currently busy with valve clearances. I refitted the exact shimms as i removed them and Im finding that the clearance has reduced by approx 15 thou all round. Im also allowing another .05 of wear on the valve seats as they have been grinded and should settle around 2000km. Will recheck them then again and it should be happy days.

Finally got some more time to work on the baby beast.

Still have to get longer power steering hoses made up to relocate the reservoir. The charger plumbing is almost complete. And then wiring up all the temp and boost gauges through the firewall. Also have to make a belt and tensioner setup work.

If all goes well im going to start the car this weekend just to check for leaks. Then finalising everything. Should drive the car October sometime.

Removed all the previous charger goodies. Charge cooler radiator, oil cooler, electric pump and wiring etc. Fitted the injectors. Going to fit the stock belt without charger and start her up just now to check for any leaks. Then the finalising of everything.

Still running everything in nicely and progressively boosting harder. Still want to have a wideband o2 sensor and afr gauge fitted before remapping properly. Taking things easy until then.
