I Donated Too sigmafour Posted June 6, 2013 Author I Donated Too Share Posted June 6, 2013 (edited) #4 no more. Pictures to find!

I Donated Too sigmafour Posted June 11, 2013 Author I Donated Too Share Posted June 11, 2013 it's been soooooo long and perfection takes time. Not just putting in pistons and buttoning it back up, nothing for performance but putting back some margin of reliability as we go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Donated Too sigmafour Posted June 15, 2013 Author I Donated Too Share Posted June 15, 2013 progress... heads are back from machine shop, ready to be reassembled and figure out what buckets will be needed and some other goodies ready to install.

I Donated Too sigmafour Posted June 20, 2013 Author I Donated Too Share Posted June 20, 2013 Yes. Good things to those that wait. This has been another meticulous build by Alberto @ Motive, picking the very best parts and digging into the engine to check everything deeply and thoroughly takes time, discussing the plan and waiting for the right parts to come in meant this is not a quick build but the efforts will be rewarded. As always I am excited and tremendously grateful for the opportunity to get built at Motive, there is no doubt about how Alberto provides the very best bespoke engine build and done with care and done right. This car will be a beast and essentially gives me a new engine at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
