Engine rebuild help
Id suggest new water and oil pump mate , bolts arent necessary for what you want to achieve and cometic headgaskets would also be a good upgrade for you.

Engine rebuild help
Hi mate , concerning buying the parts, i would strongly suggest Concept z in america, very helpful guy ( coz ) , very quick shipping,great prices and always very quick replying to emails . regarding turbo if you just want that sort of power, Jimmer on here has a 4 bolt turbo that is very good and hes around that power 450 cant remember the name of it now though, meaning you wouldnt need 5 bolt downpipes etc . injectors theres alot to choose mate and re map you can either buy a standalone ( expensive) or fit a chip to suit your spec

Car ' finished '
Hey mate , i know had a few setbacks with the time to finish the car , its still only 60-70 percent done as i still want to fix boost leaks/boost controller and a few odd vaccum pipes , also the idling is not great atm but after today its running much better as for final Bhp i want to achieve between 550-600 bhp at the flywheel when i also fit dual filters, have my EMS remapped by ryan @ 2bartunning , still have rear brakes (k sports ) and triple clutch to add the car in the future hopefully by the end of the year its all done . As about meeting up , im actually going to ace cafe with a friend and my son on Monday to the Mustang meet if you want to meet there to have a drink around noon /1 pm? if not i can usually go there every saturday/sunday mate . on monday going to ace cafe and then a bit to park lane to have a bit of fun :D

Car ' finished '
Hi guys, finally after almost a year the car is running and ready to go on the road , taxed and mot'ed too . had a few setbacks last year as i had to go work outside of london for a bit of time and then the car was runningbadly and it turns out the ECU board was damaged and the chip also , would like to give a massive thanks to Jeff and Jamie at zedworld for providing a chipped ECU to fit my spec so quickly :D The car isnt completely finished as theres still some things to do , for example fit and remap my EMS but thats only after the run in phase is done , need to sort out the boost controller as its acting a bit up ( bad connection ) , paint work still needs touchs up and a proper polishing . But for the next month or so im glad with how it is,just needs a few tweaks also going to change the exhaust tomorrow and going to use the car finally after so long :D was going to use it today but thank you Shell for not having v-power lol ! Massive difference in power wise despite barely accelerating it yet , when the turbos kick in its completely different , also very happy with the clutch as i wasnt sure . Can't wait until japfest now :cool3: few pics taken today and sorry guys, pics taken on iphone

3" down pipe fitting.
I fitted the AMS 3 inch downpipes without the starter motor ,its easy to fit the starter afterwards but be careful with the steering arm ( i mean the arm between the steering wheel and steering rack) because its slightly tight and it cannot touch.
