Nice work and a lot of time spent there. It should go like the preferable!!!!!!!
I believe your VR sensor mount may cause you vibration issues though, just so you are aware. The mount needs to be as rigid as possible to prevent from moving and causing problems at certain revs.

Hi
Looks like a nice engine build, I really should put an x pin diff in mine but I have to build up the courage to take the motor out and change the diff especially as there are no oil leaks just now.
I ran a swiftune sw5 cam in the end but have got a 286 scatter to try in it at some point, would be interested to see how you find it with the MJ.

Hi
Long time since the last post but i had my engine rolling roaded for the first time around a month ago just to get the basic settings so i could run the engine in, it managed to get 111bhp at 5750rpm as its been limited to that until iv do around 1000 miles, im really pleased as he said that there is more to come on the final set up he ended up putting AAU needles in the carbs but seems to think he might have to customize them on the final set up
I've now done just under 1000 mile so its time for an oil and filter change reset the tappets and take it back to him but im having a bit of an issue getting the settings right on the megajolt as hes not familiar with the system, need to make sure the cranking advance is correct and things like that before I do, but he will enter the ignition timing once on the rolling road.
I'll let you know how the full set up goes once its done
