The car left Nobles today and is now at Ste's for the final electrickery on its ecu.... To say I'm excited is an understatement.
Another quick picture, much like the others but this was taken a couple of days ago so a few little bits have been finished since. The vac pipe on top of the engine has been tidyed up too.

Its filled now mate, that picture is from 2 days ago. It looked awesome today when Ste picked it up. Got a nice Noble Motorsport sticker on the battery lid.
The pipe across the engine is the fuel vapour pipe that runs to the solenoid that's just under the brake reservoir. That's now been routed out the way along the fuel rail so it looks really neat.
At first I wanted to keep all the silicone hoses the same colour but the yellow induction hose was an eBay bargain and Ste only had blue silicone connectors for the hard pipe kit. As it turns out I really like it multi-coloured.

Its taken a while mate, I'd suggest when you or anyone else tackles this conversion you get the engine fully built and all the extra goodies ready first.
Looking forward to driving it with Clio gearbox, if I like it with that then I think new gearbox internals cryogenicaly frozen and a diff will be the way forward.
The freezing process is ment to strengthen the metal, sorry chocolate, by around 600%
Cheers Foxy, I hope to make it to one of the Yorkshire meets soon

Funnily enough I was thinking about the merits of freezing so when I mentioned it to Ste he did mention something that was happening
you'll have to let me know the best place to get it done. BTW your engine looks epic, so jealous..

That's where mine are going!
Can't wait to get the engine in now, hopeing for some decent figures out of it!
