excort Posted July 22, 2007 Author Share Posted July 22, 2007 well i finished welding the plate in the engine bay instead of the bubble had to tack weld the hole thing in which was gay but got there eventually allso had to weld a little strip below it which i think came up quite gud just cleaning up all the inperfections in the engine bay and then i can move on to the rest of the rust in the body woo.

excort Posted September 13, 2009 Author Share Posted September 13, 2009 Well finaly the engine has been pulled down and put back togeather properly thanks to Nismo. The car is painted thanks to D.P.N.S and its all comeing along quite well took it out for its first drive today and it went really well only thing that let me down was not haveing a spring on the idle control screw which i didnt realise till i got home and the fiberglas bonnet flexing when i went over a 100 k but i will strengthin that some how running the bottem end in on a head supplied by Nismo with the standard 32/36 and once we feel its run in anuf will be upgradeing to a bigger head with the cam rockers and valves out of the head i previously brought turned out the port job wasnt so gud on it at one point it actually flowed worse than a standard pinto in the exhaust side. Nismo is building me a up a special head so should be very interesting heres a couple pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
