Little bit progress. The Manifold plate came yesterday and I'm a little dissapointed because it's not very accurate. The rear hole is about an eighth out. Wasn't going to worry about it but I've just realised the injector spacing means I'll have to place the injector off centre in that pipe..

I can't have that so I'll probably split it and build up the hole in the plate with weld and file out the other side and hope the damn thing doesn't warp. . Pain in the arse. TBH I'm getting a bit sick of this project. You order something online and look forward to getting it so you can progress and when you get it it's not right. I've actually found myself not being annoyed because I've come to expect it.

Thing is it's not just this but virtually everything I've got so far.




Sod it. My weekend off and I was going to spend it in the garage. I'm just going to play on the bike instead.
