my s70r is ready and running

[T5frankie]

For those of you that don't know, last saturday was spent fitting a new engine to my s70r, it took us around 14 hrs from start to finish got it done by 11pm lol, so this week i have been driving around just running it in, making sure it was all good, initially it had an oil leak from the camshaft sensor so got this sorted out, then a water pipe burst luckily i noticed or could have blown another engine lol. I also got my alloy wheel tig welded as it cracked at north weald drag strip. it seems to driving ok just got to get used to the handling again after the scoob. Loving having my baby back reincarnated in this one R.I.P lol
