Last installment folks ( for those of you who cares anyway :p )
The day started with wrestling with a steering link and heat shield
(http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e12/asthier/jims%20conversion/31.jpg)
After these were back in place, i replaced the plenum re connected stuff while jim had fun with his PFC
(http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e12/asthier/jims%20conversion/32.jpg)

and finally...
(http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e12/asthier/jims%20conversion/39.jpg)
dont worry about the heat light, in his infinate wisdom he decided to cut off the cat sensor....
it pulls really smoothly and feels solid!
not much more to do really, trust SMIC IC arrives tom then injectors FPR + pump are needed before a visit to WGT for dyno results, keep your eyes peeled, and further more..
Grats Jimmeh, enjoy your new beastie, i had great fun helping :D
thanks for all the help john im well chuffed with it all the problems it had are gone it is now 100% pulls like a jet fighter and makes a wicked noise brrrrrrraggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhh ffthtfhtfhtfhtfthfth :D
