Default At last I can fit the engine!

I've been waiting for two months for an aluminium spacer block that Caterham make so that I can use the V6 type 9 gearbox (the one with better ratios but a longer input shaft) with my Zetec, and it's finally arrived! Now I can bolt engine and box together, put my mounts on, and weld some plates on the chassis - yippee!!

Sorry, just had to share my excitement, and try as she does. my wife doesn't always understand!

Cheers

Adrian
