Cheers mate. THS H beam rods, ARP bolts, ACL race bearings and thrust washers all for 4age redtop block. :D Overrated roof, needs no work, :D Overrated window frames :nod: Quarter needing no filler! :nod: Had to sort this for the daily. Had a tip. Got a new wing off AA63_MAD, ledgend! Primed it, paint tomorrow. All going well this should be fit for the painters next week. :happy: Quarters, door shuts, sill, pockets primed. Oh and I bought another 4age to run until the modified one is built up! :D

Thanks lads! THS H beam rods, ARP bolts, ACL race bearings and thrust washers all for 4age redtop block. :D

Well back at this. Big thanks to Diesel21 on here for giving me a hand and spraying my bay for the 2nd and hopefully final time, much happier with it now! Thanks again Kieran! Got a head off Maurice. too, started porting it. :thumbsup: Half way through taking valves out, all fecking 16 of them! An exhaust cam in one piece, a first for me. :D Flush rocker covers. Perfect for, ''Yes Guard she is 998cc'' (tax purposes only!!). Normal carbon build up or what do you experts think? Porting started, Loving the long evenings already!! Got a few hours at this today. Back on the wheels, bay fitted out, waxed, more stripping etc. Have two weeks off now for Easter starting Friday now, should see the car painted by the end of the two weeks. :D

Second and please god last operation on my knee today. On midterm now, not supposed to do a tap with this but my engine bay needs painting. We will see how bad the bordem is. ha Not too happy with it, will redo it.

Looks like pure scutter in the pictures and the paint is wet in them. Will get better tomorrow. Away most of the weekend now so won't get much done unfortunately. sold the 4age today! Rubbed down the bay today, never got a chance to paint it. The air was damp and cold anyway. Will dust the place down, re-mask, degrease, heat the place and hopefully paint it in the next few evenings.

Underside of bonnet and wings got 3 coats of primer and wings got a coat of etch under that too. Had the room roasting, it is well baked on! Shit pictures I know, lightig was poor, looks shinier and better in the flesh I promise.

Wings, bonnet, apron, few little panels now have 3 coats of 2k primer. Never got to do the underside of them, next weekend. Never gpt the car back on its wheels either. Was busy with other things too. Keyed down, Guide coated, Overrated bonnet. :D

Many people here running the hyperpak ignition computer? I got one today off a friend but his never worked for him, but at the same time didn't try much with it.

The rest of the bay is guide coated now. 4 coats and ready to drop it onto its wheels now. Paint looks sh!t in the pictures.

Thanks man.

Underneath the chassis legs, the front slam pannel, valance, outer side of inner wings and the crossmember are now painted red. She can now be dropped back to her wheels and I will leave the bay for the spray booth to get the best finished. The wings and bonnet are nearly all ready for primer too hopefully over the weekend. Haven't got any pictures though, tomorrow! Will give it another coat tomorrow which will make it 3.

Now that is fricking overrated! Well wear.

Loving this project man, fair play keep it up!

Don't trust setting it up like that just borrow a timimg light and do it right, end of arguement. If you still have problems after this is eliminated anyway but having your timing set up correctly may help lower your idle speed a little bit.

I think but not 100% sure that the 4ac or 3ac dissy casing bolts to the 4age head. The problem is that the 3-4AC dizzy spins anti-clockwise when the 4age one spins clockwise.You change this by swapping the gear over from the 4age dizzy to the AC one but then timing retards rather than advances with RPM. However I reckon the internals of a 4k dizzy will swap over so that the centrifugal weights open the right way so that the timing will again advance rather than retard with RPM. Think I will try give it a go.
