Who would have thought wiring would take all day :roll:

All connections crimped and solderered, and wrapped in shieving and heat shrinked :D

Also fitted and wired my vdo dipstick sender :D
 
Impressive 8)
I hope you have connected all the right wires to the right ends ;)

As far as i'm concerned everything takes longer than i estimate! But you are making some fantastic progress and stunning looking work.

Looking forward to seeing this running now.

Work it a bit first though, build the tension :lol:

Wow, love reading resto threads and this one is a cracker. Some top work going on there shaun and I love the man cave. That engine is just mechanical **** as well. Post up a vid when you get it running. Wanna hear those sweet double intakes sucking in the O2. Need more photis for my dub fix - will also inspire me to finish mine.

:lol: :lol: :lol: cheers j

Not running as much as me :lol: I could have had it running yesterday by just connecting the wiring I had and some temp wiring, but I thought do it now for how I want it finished, and now I'm wanting to get the gauges all installed and wired prior to starting so I can monitor it from the first start :? That's why it's taking so long :lol:
 
Looks amazing :D
I shortened my VDO dipstick, to make it look better.
It's easy to do, so if youre intersted, i can look up the instructions on the www for you ;)
