    Cheers Pete, best slowest project ever, maybe?

    Did my ignition and injection testing today, that was all good and all in the right order.

    The rad fans didn't work though, relays are latching but the plugs to the fan are a bit corroded. Easy fix.
    Electric PAS relay isn't latching though, that's a bit of a bum as it's overly complicated. It was working before I decided to use the ECU control it so that it can't start (and drain battery) before the engine is running and the battery voltage at a healthy level, i.e. alternator working.

    Will sort it all and get the dash all sorted next week.

    We will all be 70 before you finish this thing.

    I look , I often feel pretty old and I'm losing my marbles BUT I was only tipping into late-50s

    As Doc says, I'll probs be in my 70s before you finish it if I live that long

    It's nearly finished, comparatively.
    Might finish it before I'm 44.

    Had a few hours on it today, fans working and got the remaining loom wiring for the fan relays finished.
    Electric PAS, I know what needs doing to make it work, need to get some bits. The control unit for it is a bit fussy so need to work around it.
    Tested some more ECU output functions, and calibrated the G sensors.
    Started sorting some of the interior wiring for gauges, switches etc. Need to order some bits.

    Ok, been a year. maybe an update.
    It's kinda finished (will never be actually finished), but is on the road.

    Here's a dyno graph, 496@1.5Bar (432 @ wheels), the run was at a light/fast ramp rate somewhere between 2nd and 3rd gear pull on the road. Gets to 2bar around 4k in 5th gear on the road.
