Thanks Peter
My next step is wiring and putting the v6 engine in.
Which I’m looking forward to doing. But a bit scared at the same time 🤪

I know the feeling mate, though I’ve never taken a project on like yours, I get nervous and excited when I go into new territory too. I quite like the feeling actually!

Thanks guys
It is a bit of a beast and it looks awesome in the engine bay if I do say so myself. Now hopefully the next stage will be done by Sunday night

Spent a couple of hours on the wiring today after work. (Just the unpinning)
Should be all unpinned tomorrow and probably start pining in to the v6 ecu Image

I hope you know what your doing with the wiring i wouldn't know where to start with that lot one or two wires maybe but you've got one hell of a bunch there to sort through :lol:
It will be worth it in the end once you fire her up you've got to many guys on here waiting eagerly to see it back on the road
