Ah, good, I'll be giving you some competition - when it's done 
Getting up around 4 am tomorrow for a track day at Taupo* with the Calibra - it's getting into my blood again, this motorsport bug.
*Assuming nothing goes wrong - done the belts today and I've a nagging suspicion it's had cam's at some stage as I just can't get a good idle and it really picks up with rpm. Now I want an SBD type 'C' manifold** and 2 1/2" system - current one is a bodge job by previous owner(s)
**Or I'll make one - I've the dimensions.
Oh, got some spare steel idlers for an early XE if you know anyone interested? Turns out they'd already been done as well.
