Hi all, the first one is going and driving well and I've just done a valve lap and descale on the engine for the second carrier.This is an engine out of a Jailbar and by the looks of it, I think it has been done up before. Even the engine oil was still clean and unpoluted. This one has the crab dizzy which is a good thing.

Well after my leave of absence (Holidays) it's back to the shed and finish the carrier for NSW. Got my new camera today so took a few shots.
I have made a coupling for the trans as I don't have any with a taper. Quite time consuming to make but it turned out good. It is made from 3 seperate pieces and welded together. Just as strong as an original and fits very well.
