Hahah we'll today I was down giving a mate hand getting his 1275 turbo lump running and it's gave me the bug again

Haven't been on TMF for ages but just rest through your whole thread. Awesome work. I've just built a very similar spec engine and am in the process of pulling the old lump out and fitting up my new donk. Here's a video of her on first start up to get you back in the mood, and then a run at about 7500rpm which gives me Goosebumps. Good luck with the build, don't give up now!
