The headers and some turbo components have been coated by Cam Coat, it worked out at £380.00 including vat thats inside and out. The finish is good but it was quite a long turnaround, about 4 weeks.
I'll send you some pics of the valve springs etc or pop over have a look if you got a spare evening.
Cheers, John.

Yes its one of the Hartge engines, Stephen has had it sitting around since getting it off Andy. Good to see it put to use.
Unfortunately its not just a straight swap, lots to be fabricated and changes made to engine mount plate, sump etc.
The turbos will be positioned in the large voids behind the inner wings.
Cheers.

but the rear top shaft bearing is more prone to failure than the UN1-07 GTA turbo arrangement; I didn't believe it either until I was shown. It's the same bearing as on the UN5, pt no. 77 03 090 245
