just realised its now been over a year since this project was started :( it was supposed to be finished in 12 weeks


will have to get my finger out and get on with it if its gonna see the show season, just lacking the motive to bother with it now.
one thing that is happening is the cylinder head is being sent off to get the chambers opened up to drop the compression to allow fitments of a supercharger
