When I am rich and retired, I will use this thread as a guide to rebuilding engines. Seriously good work mate, and with plenty of pictures as well. Do make sure you finish the project mind, else there'll be countless half-built yellow engines sat around the country. ________________________________________ Membership expiring soon, get in contact on our new little forum project. |

I had yellow paint mixed up especially for my block about 6 months ago, glad I did'nt put it on now as I would be accused of copying.

I won't have any problems getting it welded on properly, some of my suppliers at work do a lot of tig welding for the nuclear & aerospace industries.I did a lot of research into snap off bosses, the one I've bought is the cheapest correct quality one on the Market, don't worry I've got plenty of spare yellow paint for the pull ring  ________________________________________ Get used to seeing the yellow one !!!Team 330™ Team "no front end or engine" Team "LIMITED EDITION" I live for the 306 sticker Team 0-60 in 6.44 & standing qtr in 14.808 @ 94.55mph all with std engine 203bhp Corolla T-Sport daily driver stealthier than Kwai Chang Caine |

What a day......I've been down to Silverstone today to see vittesse_tuning to pick up my single skin fibreglass bonnet & tailgate. After a 400 mile round trip I've just got home. My ashtray took some hammer   I'll post some pics of them after I've had a little nap (I'm feeling old) ________________________________________ Get used to seeing the yellow one !!!Team 330™ Team "no front end or engine" Team "LIMITED EDITION" I live for the 306 sticker Team 0-60 in 6.44 & standing qtr in 14.808 @ 94.55mph all with std engine 203bhp Corolla T-Sport daily driver stealthier than Kwai Chang Caine |

Ashtra van Black gloss is an awkward colour as it shows off the slightest blemish, matt black on the other hand would be ideal ________________________________________ Get used to seeing the yellow one !!!Team 330™ Team "no front end or engine" Team "LIMITED EDITION" I live for the 306 sticker Team 0-60 in 6.44 & standing qtr in 14.808 @ 94.55mph all with std engine 203bhp Corolla T-Sport daily driver stealthier than Kwai Chang Caine |
