Little Update

Very nice. Ready to drop in soon? Or still waiting for the frame?

Alex1380 · 16-03-2013, 12:17 PM

Drive shaft problem.
So the allspeed frame has arrived along with the dive shafts however one seems.... Short

Do I need this jack shaft?

This came with te engine but the swift drive shafts didn't. Tried the ones from the car I got and they don't fit in to the jackshaft

Seems I'm shafted ( rubbish joke I know)

nice way of mounting the engine in the stand! must try that with mine

could it be mk1/mk2 drive shafts mix somehow? I have that extra half shaft on mine mk1 engine, by memory my shafts was 32 and 28 cm, anyway there was a slight difference in lenght

Looking at it I need a pair of inner cv joints. The shafts I have are from a 1ltr. The gti shafts seem to have a larger OD
Any one got a pair of gti drive shafts?

Alex1380 · 27-03-2013, 10:32 PM

So got busy last week...

Hi Alex,

What drive shaft do you need?
I have a mk2 Gti drive shaft with pot joint iirc....
Let me know.

Cheers

Alex1380 · 28-03-2013, 07:23 AM

Drive shafts all sorted now. Got a pair from a chap on the ssgtiuk page.

Alex1380 · 02-04-2013, 07:33 PM

On to thinking about the inlet manifold. Any suggestions.....

miniswift · 10-04-2013, 09:13 PM

Hi,

I managed to locate a std exhaust manifold you were after.
If you are still interested, let me know. Is the deal still on?

Cheers
Atchi

Managed to get one from a guy in Scotland, just waiting for it to arrive. Still got that engine so sure we can work something out.

Alex1380 · 21-06-2013, 08:04 AM

UPDATE

But the biggest news is i've had the engine running!

Alex1380 · 09-07-2013, 08:01 PM

Right it's off to the MOT place tomorrow. Sorted out the insurance £225 which I'd didn't think was too bad could of been worse.
