The parts number for the two set of deflectors is in the pic mate, just google and go with what you can afford on the results. I got mine from a bidding site in Japan, cost arm and leg!

It seems only a few months since I helped you view the car so glad it was a good base point�� Thanks mark. Yeah it’s been far to long but I’m glad it’s finally coming together now. Not long and she will be fully built and restored underneath, with lots of new parts. Just need a respray which will take much more savings! Yeah seems like yesterday we met and went over the car together. Was a very good baseline shell and engine. Exactly what I wanted really. Cannot wait till she’s back from James ready for mapping etc. Still lots to do when back though, alarm and lots of new parts to fit my end.

Jellybean Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Why do you have Pistons and Rods sitting in the block prior to seating your crank and torquing down the main caps? , you want to ensure the crank moves freely before installing piston and Rods You guide the piston and rod onto the connection rod journal from the top of the cylinder via a piston ring compressor tool , stops the rings bending or breaking Why did you not put it on an engine stand when installing everything , make life alot easier measuring clearance and reduce the risk of making a mistake , damaging anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
