Marty, the layout of those IC pipes looks correct to me bud

and the VG does seem to fill out the engine bay, but most of it is ancillaries and shite, the actual engine itself isn't that big

Back in the workshop today and I'm knocking up a little custom carbon fibre switch panel in place of the ash tray to house my aftermarket heated seat switches and cig lighter port.

I've been making a little backwards progress today due to the keys being stolen and having to change locks and barrel plus dramas with the alarm. However I did hook the battery up and get the lights on to have a look. Got custom made halo sidelights and if uglier dials installed. Man I can't wait to drive this car I've been eyeing up some 12" rims for the rear as they should squeeze in :)

Oh and I hooked one of the seats up to check on the electrics aftermarket heated panels when the retrim was done :)
