Kermit II (K-II) Triple rotor rebuild project

[Sicknote]

Oi! Stop reminiscing you two, and get back to work on the car Dave :Giggle

You can\'t even be thinking about time off in Florida until you\'ve got that car completed. We want to see it on track this year :Thumbs-up

I think someone should hold your passport until you\'ve finished to stop you getting these strange ideas about holidaying

PMSL, damn you Malcolm,you\'re ok, I found out it was out of date a few weeks back.  lol

Tonight we wanted to get the engine in but we still had a few problems seating the injectors but this is something that
couldn\'t be rushed as we don\'t want to have to take the engine back out to sort the problem of a leak, we dry fitted
the joins and connectors to make sure of clearances, we\'re quite chuffed with the results, the engine goes in tomorrow evening.  


Our first idea to seat the injectors was rejected !!  





The rails, injectors and fittings in place.  





And checking clearances for the UIM.




And just a couple of arty shots as the set up looks rather sexy.

lol, not after tonight matt, a bit frustrating to say the least.

We built the engine up and yes we DID put the engine in the car but the oil pressure sensor AND the connector at the
end of the secondary fuel rail caught on the bulkhead, the only option was to cut the bulkhead, that was the easy bit, the
pain in the arse bit will be to weld in some box section, the engine will need to be removed again for the welding.  ARSE !!!!


Re-tapped the thread on the retaining nut for the sandwich plate for the oil thermostat and cooler splitter.







Fitted the connectors to the FPR





Next we started building the engine back up.

















Covered the ceramic coating for protection whilst inserting engine back into the car.

Here\'s a shot of the small hole in the bulkhead from last night.  lol





And I picked up the rest (except the rear bumper) from Ty at Riviera.

The doors look great

Big hole in the bulkhead easily filled with that really big turbo:eek:

If Grant gets the three rotor I\'m calling dibs on his 13B.

[Grant Monkhouse]

Sounds like a good chain deal. Now get the 4 rotor ordered and post the 20b I hope you wiped the car down after cutting, nothing worse thAn bits of metal on your nice new paint and it gets wet:( made that mistake and wasn\'t happy
