Can't believe the string of events on your car to where you are now, stay strong! I don't think I would be able to do the same in your situation

Finally the engine is back together with all the clearance issues sorted with the machining of the pistons.

I think the force will be strong with this engine.

I wish I was!

The car is all back together but is apparently running like a bag of shite! This is because its a new engine and the map doesn't work well with it :boredom: I hope they are right about this, they have insisted that the car is mapped again before I start driving it otherwise the warranty will be void.

So the car is being delivered to a rolling road tomorrow at 11.00am. I hope they are right but I have lost all confidence in them time will tell. Its going to a rough nights sleep.
