Simon from GTI Performance has kindly let me borrow an engine to finish the year off.

This motor is a proper race motor (compared to mine that had standard insides).  With the extra power that it can make, it also means a stronger gearbox, which he has also lent me – problem is that it won’t fit inside the transmission tunnel as it is now – time to cut that one out of the car and make a wider tunnel…  It has different gear ratios too, so I need to swap over to a different diff ratio too – just another job for the weekend…

Its going to be a hard week – I apologize in advance for being so tired and grumpy!
