New Oil Control Rings arrived today.
Checked the part numbers for the steal oil control sings (oil seals) and they are the same so joy of joys I can use some RX8 ones I have laying around.

Also brother has painted up the new irons this evening after I cleaned up the posts in the secondaries last night.

Also dropped the injectors off for flow testing to make sure they are operating and where not the cause of the petrol wash (one stuck open ect)

Hoping to pull this one off for Brooklands.

Wish me luck

So That\'s the FC Short Block assembled... Not long finished.
All the rest to do after some sleep time lol

Well after another late night 1:30am we finally got the block in and fitted. Started her up and she ran ok.
JayDee has been over today to check over the map settings and after having a fiddle it\'s running nicely. Minimal smoke too.

Really don\'t want to jinx things but after adjusting the idle and timing it seems to be running nicely.

Going to use it today for running around and hope it will make it to Brooklands now

Well done that man

Arnie_O · May 30, 2014, 07:25:34 PM

First outing today. Would like to say thank you to everyone that\'s helped get it where it is so far. You have all been a great help and in many cases a source of inspiration and a shoulder to cry on when it\'s gone wrong.
