    Right I need a bit of advice , I've timed the bottom half of the engine as the head is not ready , piston 1 is at tdc and the ground tooth opposite the main cap split , but I couldn't seem to get the intermediate shady sprocket bang on , it's about 1mm right of the guide mark behind the sprocket is that anything to worry about or do I have to re do it ?

    Right so finally got my engine back so now for some building , seeing as all the bolts and bits for the engine are in bags and half of them aren't labelled this is going to be fun lol Got a few bits on like the oil filter housing , rear mount , crank sensor and started with the oil cooler but need to buy the UM external oil cooler pipe to in both OEM oil cooler and my Mocal external oil cooler

    Little update on the build... my engine builder was putting the wossner pistons in and hes cracked one of the rings.... how do I get hold of a set of wossner rings for the 82.5mm pistons? Getting rather annoyed as its been around a month and a half and hes only now started to build it and now hes cracked a ring :/, any advice on where to get a set?

    Because the engine loom I've got on the car at the moment is a crossover loom with coilpack but is obd1
  16. Maybe they put a 1 instead of a 2 by accident
