Booked it will have its first few low power tunes on the dyno...

Then do a few 1,000's k's & then power tune again I believe..

I will do what ever the book says... Cant wait to just have it running & driving everywhere!

Dean how did the solid mounted motor pan out...? Did you come across any problems with solid mounting it?

Well as for Solid mounting The Vibration is the only concern.. (everything needs to be lock tighted) or it vibrates loose.. Cant feel the vibration in the car thou... Sooo It seems to be good... ask me when i do some K's

Well the update.... Mr Enforcer has put the motor back in & its now ready for anouther tune & dyno...

I have booked the car in at MRC to do the tune this time (same people as who rebuilt the motor)

So it will be tuned between the 20th & 21st of this month...

Just getting MR Enforcer to make up a custom Air Filter Box...
