well think its time i updated this,
the car is now running,
http://media.putfile.com/Second-Fire-up-of-stg3-v8
needs a remap session, but we are mobile, had a few gremlins to sort out as the vac unit did not cure the fault, the ecu was sent away and that was fine too,
turned out to be a faulty lock nut on the new pushrods, it had failed and wound its adjuster out which held the exhaust valve open on one cylinder

Hi P,
oh she will be running for when you come over,
she is running real sweet now,
im really learning this mapping lark now,
im looking at 4 or 5 linking the rear end now, but need some advice and guidance regarding this as not sure how hard it is to be done on the capri rear.

last weekend we had a throttle spring break and jam the throttle wide open nearly totalling mine and two other cars,
this weekend, we nearly wrote her off with a rear end puncture,
on removing the rear wheel we came across this sticking out the inner side wall,
this is the entry point and what was sticking out the sidewall
we went back to where we heard the bang and found this lot in the road, just think if it was someone on a motorbike that hit this lot,
BUT on a brighter note:
while the car is laid up with no rear tyres,
i got on doing the injection system ready (fingers crossed) for the WON day at FAST.
Trial fit, to check fittment.
New Bosch 440cc's- 42lb/hr Motorsport Injectors and fuel rail fitted,
Trumpet base and plenum top reffitted,
A few minor things left to connect up, but it got too cold round the garage this evening (-2 on the car thermometer)
