  1. Sooo... It´s been a long few months spent in the garage but the engine is up and running It was quite a relief when it rolled over. It has some slight ticking but I presume it has to settle down, first 500km will be slow and steady to get the engine into the proper state Then dyno and some tune to get it smoother running
