ok quick update..
put engine in last week..
ended up having to go nistune as my power fc was wrong one..
anyway car was running fine and ran it in for a day..
had it in stivs and him and a mate of mine went and mapped it.
car was running 100% and finished the map..
they were on way home and heard a rattle
got it back to shed.
so out comes engine AGAIN
ANYWAY IT WAS OUR OWN FAULT.
WE PUT THE OIL RECOLATER KIT PIPES ON WRONG WAY AROUND.
SO NO OIL GETTING AROUND
SO MEANS BEARINGS ARE WANKED..
BUT CRANK IS OK
SO NEW SET OF BEARINGS GOING INTO IT TOMORROW AND PUTTING IT BACK TOGETHER TOMORROW..
WILL BE PUTTING ENGINE IN FRI.
SO MONDELLO IS LOOKING GOOD.
WANNA SAY THANKS TO COLM FOR HIS HELP TONIGHT IN STIVS..
