    Lots of little bits have been done recently, almost built the engine completely. Just waiting on bits like braided turbo lines, starter motor, PTU etc to turn up then we should be good to go.

    Put some spats on yesterday, anybody care to guess off what car? ;)

    I'll update later on today, heading down in a bit to fix braided turbo lines and get the old stubborn engine mounts out :-(

    Is it easier to fix new mounts to the engine or the car itself?
