Got them from a breaker I brought
They're in very nice order... has he got some beige ones?
Looking good
Nice taste in films too - World's Fastest Indian is one of my favourites
Great colour! What are your plans for it?
UPDATE:
2 Hours after having her on the road it would appear I have now got a possible bent conrod. Went so so well and then started a really bad ticking noise
Engines already out being fully rebuilt (no pics as of yet)
Long time since update........ Car is finally finished and owes me more than I even care to think about. BUT it has been truly worth every penny!!! Freshly rebuild B5234T3, honed with forged conrods and AE pistons, new bearings all round, skimmed head, every new gasket, new everything including angled 16t and 3in downpipe with sports cat, some of you may know what I was up too.....
Running RICA and 350 injectors. Currently on 1.3 bar..... I also have a air/fuel ratio gauge and boost gauge to monitor things.
I had my mate take a few pictures:

Looks brilliant, I never saw the original bent conrod post... any idea what caused it? Big pity but then you've certainly done a great job on bringing it back!
