This was a productive weekend.
Got my wheels fitted, engine assembled and reinstalled.

Just need to finish the oil pump, then we can start again :)

I did not really push her.

Went up to 5000rpm max. Got really nice torque. I'll put up some milage this weekend, then we'll see what she can do :hangloose:
