I picked myself up an F20C from a 03 s2K, Bought everything I needed from the s2K, engine box loom ecu clocks and shaft, removed all the stuff meself from the crashed s2K so id have an idea where everything went.

Removed everything from cam, down to a bear shell and tried a quick trial fitment, marking up the tunnel where i needed to cut.

Next I went and bought some steel and made up a trailed spit for spining my cam around on while i was seam welding her / sand blasting. Had two hubs found an old ball hitch thingy.

Then bought myself a new MIG welder... and started cleaning the shell off for welding

Next which was a very tight job, had to extend my exhaust manifold out from the head inorder to allow it to pass down between the chasis leg and the steering rod shaft.

1 hour after the blaster :) left, I had the shell warming up in my panel beaters spray boot.

I had the shell fully cleaned down (Blew out cause ta sand is a fcuker to get outa the small pockets) and brought up to the spray boot in this hour thanks to the help of me friends.

This was done on the Xmas hols of 2008 / 09. S in the same day she was sand blasted she got primed with zinc primer :D

In the spray box,
