15-05-15, 00:32 GMT+10#24 Something about some adapter plates that never arrived etc.
Once all parts were there, the actual build didn't take long.
Hasn't been too bad though, I've had my girlfriends Cosworth to tinker with in the meantime

Have you got the glide in the car now, and was it worth the wait?

Will still be a few more things I need to do before the car will be back on the road though, but once I have the box, it shouldn't take too long I hope.

Nah, it won't be too wild in todays measurements I guess.
Will be running 98, have a Precision 6466 with a 6boost manifold sitting just itching to go on, but decided to do driveline first as the poor old Jatco didn't like life.
I would expect it to make in the realms of ~450rwhp once finished with moderate boost. Should be good for a bit more on E85 and lots of boost, but that's not really what I'm after to be honest. If it gets me in the 10's then I'm happy.
