Hopefully it shows up today!

If not, looks like we will be transplanting Sam's engine into my car this weekend...

I have absolutely NO idea why we didn't realise earlier that we had another 7M sitting in the driveway doing nothing... *shakes head at my biggest blonde moment EVER*

Great thing is though that his has a Turbo A head :boobies::boobies::boobies::boobies::boobies:

Is the Turbo A head actually any different?

I honestly don't know... But I think it's awesome to just have a turbo A part on my car :D

Lol fair enough, I can understand that. I have the fuel rail and throttle body from the Group A race car here, and whilst I dont know if they are any different, they still have a coolness attachd to them

One way to make your head different is to introduce some nice HKS cams to it :)

I understand

I have those brand new BC springs and retaineers to sell too now

If you are really interested I am happy to hold them for a pre-determined amount of time.

Maybe we can talk about this later on. I want to wait till my head is actually finished and no unexpected issue arises with the new gear before I part with the other stuff anyway

Later on sounds great to me... :D

-----------------------

Managed to sort out an engine crane for the weekend, so tomorrow we will be getting Sam's 7M running 100% right, then swapping the engines over... If all goes well, we should have my car up and running by Sunday night!!!!!!!

The throttle body and ruel rail I wa referring to are not Turbo A but Group A ie they came off the factory Toyota backed race car used in group A touring car racing, 2 completely different things ;)

Thanks guys!!!

I am hoping and praying and crossing fingers and toes everything goes to plan and we have it running on Sunday!!!!!!!!

I am cleaning the house this morning and baking and decorating a trial Christening cake for Chloe... Will try and get the driver's door trim back together at some point, as well as attempting to get the door trims back on the car...

But this is all dependent on the little one being well behaved... *fingers crossed*

It took Sam 10 minutes to get the outside packaging off!!! You packed it VERY well!

We haven't taken it out of it's Toyota packaging yet.
