To just keep this alive; i'm now in the process of building the shed to keep this engine; as many of you may know, it has been raining consantly for a good week now, so between rain today, i managed to get to B&Q, buy some base blocks, and get the ground as level as possible before starting to lay the base of the shed down.
I'd like to say there are a few hinderences coming up in the near future, but nothing is set in stone, but as money flow slows down, i can only save SO MUCH before purchasing parts.
Once the shed is up, i can get the 1.8 block in, and get the rest of the parts (head, box, shafts, ECU) off Sam and start getting that ready.
After the shed is in, and the 1.8 is taken apart, i'm going to send/measure a conrod for PEC who'll be making a custom rod from their production line if there is no "off the shelf" jobby.
Appreciate the patience! Donations welcomed
