Gearbox/Transfer box off.


Clutch/smf off. Sitting patiently on the stand.


Ready for the head off.

Hi mate, I will be going this way this year so got a few questions you can pm me if you like.

Who is doing the build for you?

Which kit you using? ATP?

What were the problems with BSH? as I was going to go for their kit

Who advised you on what piston & rods to get? and anything else needed?

How much are they charging you to fit the parts?

How much did all the bits cost before fitting?

Sorry for all the questions  :laugh: Just want to get things right before I start getting all the parts etc

The build is being done at home Phil by Allan Fulton.
I will be using the ATP gtx kit - quicker spool.
BSH messed me around massively, 5months I waited then started to panic about my money so got a refund. Think I heard three different excuses from them (maybe genuine I dont know).
Everthing uprated I have ordered from the USA...so much cheaper inc import. Speak to IE mate they are sh*t hot and mail back quick.
As for price of parts I havnt a clue I would need to sit and work it out, its all been needed so I have just bought it. A lot more than expected for seals and gaskets!
Hardest bits are done now so its onto the delicate parts.

Any more questions just ask. Cheers!

I'm hoping for 501 Ron.  :laugh: Little important finishing parts will arrive from BdmAlex on wednesday. Turbo hasnt been ordered yet but wont take long to arrive once ordered. At this rate shouldnt take too long before its built, get another big blast at it this week. Cheers, Stevie.

Yes he did, but it wasn't exactly unexpected and more a test to see what the standard internals would take. When just shy of 320.... Kabooooooooooom!!!!

He then had the plans already in place for BT and forged bottom end and this is the result...... So far!!!

Hope you can make 30-130 mate. But I understand these things aren't exactly quick in their progression, so fingers crossed.  :happy2:

Little bit further today.

Head is away to get built.


Time for piston/rod upgrade.

This is the size of bar needed to remove crankshaft securing bolt! What a nightmare that was! Never felt a bolt as tight in my life.

The metal pipework is all custom, intake, dv, downpipe and charge pipe. I have quite a few uprated silicone hoses, the important high pressure ones. I should take a pic of all the plastic tagged bags, bloody hell!  :scared:
