Re: Project one. Aka Astrell tweeks
So this has been a while. I have rebuilt my engine, running problems were caused by the inlet cam had sheared its key and was a quarter turn out. Engine isn't back in the car yet, still in my bedroom. Lol I have been building a garage for the Volvo which has significantly slower my progress.
