    Loving it Pete, you've been busy!

    Love the switch box and LS1 coils.

    Is ECU to run the ABF? (are you going to pop the 8V in first to get it running or go straight for the 16V)

    And did you rebuild the box yourself?


    i like volkswagens

    I got Lloyd Davies of Volkwerke to rebuild the box for me, I'm running out of time.

    Motor details will be available at DOVW.

    Radiator is done.

    Bushes
















    Dual stacked 55mm cores.

    Setup to run a late model expansion tank.

    The ECU can run the fan but I had a MK1 style fan switch fitted In case I need it later on.

    Flywheel is back from Crankshaft Regrinders..

    It's been lightened, resurfaced and balanced.

    Now that I know how everything fits in the engine bay I can make and fit the strut brace.

    I'll weld the brackets in tomorrow and make up the lower brace as well.
