I don't know... theyv eatten half a kilo of rat bait since tho, just so long as no Mrs Funt'maRunt leaves the garage open like last time when my dog got poisoned.... still a bit filthy about the $600 vet bill to keep the pregnant dog alive, that couldve been some new tyres or somthing coolerer!!

Right... had Hometune in today, was a G.C of a chap fortuneately... Green Gem is booked in for WOF in 10hrs... have a few things to do when I wake up but pretty sure it will pass the WOF...
In other news theres something not right with the engine... Mr Hometune couldnt tune it properly, it was showing symptoms of running rich and lean... Meh!
May have to change plans and ram the rebuilt G161 in that was intended for red wag and get a 2nd one built for red wag... we'll see...
Anyhow all going well this ride will finally be legal after all these years!! ;D

Got engine out just after 8pm... woopwoop
Now just need to figure out how to centre clutch plate in the pressure plate before I can tighten the nuts up and bolt the box onto the engine then give it a hoist into place... I'm not the fastest but pretty happy with my pace working on own with not the best tools etc and takin it slow so as not to munch any paint!

was in barn till 130am... engine in, gbox xmember bolted up, whole bunch of lil bits connected up, gearshifter and centre console back in, clutch cable hooked back up but not adjusted...
Back in barn at 9am... went out got last (hopefully) of the supplies.New zorst, gasket, sparkplugs, breather filter and headlamp bulbs. Collected carb from being cleaned (Free, cheers gareth @ Italian Job!!)
Back in shed... fitting everything else... only 2 things left I think.... drive shaft which tbh looks a bit poked, the rubbers on the universals are all split.... and dizzy... fully out of my depth... then fill with oil/water and kick her in the guts.... gbox oil too doh! List is always expanding...
