Hi Guys , thanks for all the replys , the motor will only run in the next week still busy with all the plumbing and making brackets to hold everything.
Still have to fit all fuel pipes to the rails and return lines to the pump and tank . Also wiring from the rad fans and oil cooler fan and fit the management phew ! :wink:

The Beast lives !! Took the bus for a drive this morning with Brian sitting in the back "mapping" as we went , I must be honest dont know how im gonna stay of the boost till I get her run in... the 2.3 has plenty of bottom end and when the boost arrives at about 3200 rpm its hard to let go of the loud pedal , cant wait to get her run in and dynod with right mixtures and timming. I have found a water leak or two and I have to fab some kinda shield for the turbo not to dammage the paint but considering the scale of the conversion it turned out not to bad (touch wood) cooling still concerns me, seeing I got 96c on the test drive with all fans running on the rad and oil cooler but hopefully this was caused by air in the system :? and sorting out the leaks and bleeding it should hopefully rectify that .
