Well so far I've started it up during the dangerzone two or three times now, and its' been just fine! I'm blaming the float, or, errm, the something, or, errrrrrm, dammit it must've been me:D
Like ya say, at least its' got mostly new ignition, that can't be a bad thing..
Seems the problem has flipped a little bit now, and its' running terrible from cold! Just for a couple minutes.. Threatening to cut out and juddering. Argh well, I'll have a look tomorrow and see if the choke is definitely working properly etc before I work myself into another confused blur of retardedness.. Its' since I took the carb off and apart anyways, it's gotta be something to do with that process.. Hell, its' probably just me being stupid again:D

car is on this forum aswell:

engine has about 140bhp to start with, after the big rebuild it still needs to run easy the first 800 miles. after that, other carb + higher boost, hoping to get at least 180bhp out of it to start with

Sweeeeeeet! I've no idea what it's like is over there, but here, as you may know, we got a cheaper tax band for engines 1549 and under.. Big power with cheap tax would be nice! Ok so the price difference isn't even that much, but it'd still be cool anyways:D
Take that, government:p
