On its way to me....

Got a good price from radtec. Still silly expensive though.


Also got a new clutch oil seal (currently leaking), output shaft seals (again leaking) and a gearbox gasket set so i can rebuild and fit a few new bits to my engine.

Is that the larger core one? If you don't mind me asking how much did it set you back? Good updates by the way Jonny.

It is indeed. 68mm core. Should help a lot with as I will only have a electric fan.

It was 310 delivered.

Does yours need doing?

Your build helps motivate me to get mine going, especially with a few of your ideas. Hopefully mine does the same. I've got a few good updates coming up.

I managed to get the diff done tonight. Did it with an angle grinder in the end!

Nice, I'm surprised Benross F'd up. He's quite highly regarded on TM as I'm sure you know.

Yes I was surprised. He was very keen to help and his prices are great. I would recommend!

He was more than willing to take them back and trim them down but I just did it myself.

Should get it built next week and put it back on the block.

My radiator turned up. Very happy to say the least. Quality of it is amazing. It's also ridiculously thick. Along with the valve stem seals.

Also got a nice sheet of alloy to make up the spreaders above.

Got a few bits done.

Diffs built and bolts are undone on the engine ready for vernier timing gear, dsn cover and pinion. Heads built and I got a MED damper kit. Not sure why but my crank damper is cracked on the collar that sits on the end of the crank. Bit odd as it doesn't take any load.
