you and I need to have a word...I've never been offered sweets from your sweetie stash... ;D

Mate it is looking excellent and what can i say about that exhaust..mmmmm that is a very sexy piece of kit...shame its at the back of the engine - why dont you mount the engine the other way round so you can see it better . : )

I have seen the paint and for a first time it is excellent..have seen paint from 'pros' that could be embarrassed by this. x

All in your little garage (yes I know you did the work in there...including the paint...but tell the readers about the other 10 garages/ equivalent space you have to store the small selection of tools/ cars/ pool tables etc you own)..oops

I am proud of you mate you are doing an excellent job.. keep going x

Cheers mate, you can come and have some sweets at easter if you get your hands dirty. maybe even an egg.

and I did do all the work in the little garage, can't get in the others for future projects lol.

would be no good turning the engine round you would then loose sight of the throttle bodies and billet ram pipes mmmmmmmmm ;D
