Can't wait to see some videos of this driving :love:

I'm looking forward too driving it .....

is that a standard colour?
that engine looks well clean inside.

No it's not standard.... And yes it was built under controlled conditions

Now we have been given a lead time for the new revised version of the ECU we've been able too pencil in a date for first fire up.

Missed a few updates on here but.....
Saw the car Friday and saw the progress!! So nearly there now and now its just the last few bits. They done well and managed too keep full use of the AC which is a nice touch. Exhaust was just being finished in mockup and was being delivered today for final Tig work. Inter cooler to go in next week and the final small list too work through before its time too awaken it.........

One word - EPIC!  :happy2:

Where Napoleons armies marched with horse and musket and Hitlers Reich crumbled in blood and rubble, the warriors of Armageddon do battle against the landscape of hell now indeed thrive the ARMOURERS

So this week, all being well should see first fire up and test drive, final adjustments, MOT, register plates and maybe keys handed over too commence running in!!!

Some phone pics from Friday's visit when I spent the afternoon chipping in with mounting the FMIC and mocking up pipe work and making the final half page list!!

First fire up happened today with it going on 1st turn of the key..... We let it run for 5 mins on tickover and checked for any leaks... None.... Fired it up and revved too a 1000 rpm for 5 mins and shut it off and continued preparing it for the MOT tomorrow
Good news its list none of the V6 sound and if anything sounds like a Pro Street V8!!!
