Do you know what "Nemesis" means? A righteous infliction of retribution manifested by an appropriate agent. Personified in this case by an 'orrible c*nt... me.

Already done when I bought it. Got trouble with the gearbox at the moment, can't be a lot, probably me not pluged something back together. I must say - C30SE engines are so much easier and quicker to put back together. I spend all day Saturday 24th with DK doing the timing case, head and cams. All day Sunday and night 3 hrs Monday Night 3 hrs Tuesday Night 3 hrs Wednesday Night 3 hrs thursday Night 5 hrs Friday Night 3 hrs Saturday Turned the key at 14:00 saturday. I know it was my first time rebuilding a Lotus, but its not a Job I would like to do again quickly. |
