Ended up finally starting on the car. rubbed it back with 80 grit, took it down to bare metal in some areas, but not all. Was great fun on the day my painter primed it, that there is meant to be a pillar trim on the c pillar! Whoops... Better than two nights later when it would have been in paint.
Went with a two tone white over red.
Bought two b20s, both ported heads etc, one was a complete motor with celica 5 speed attached. balanced crank and flywheel, 40' over pistons. Decked the block to make for a total of 32' squish with a b20e head gasket which I've measured myself as coming in at 28' squashed. Currently waiting on bearings from fcp, as despite the Motor apparently only having done 10.000km since a rebuild, and the compression is at 9.7:1, the bearings have signs on knocking.
Won't be an issue with twin dcoe 45s, a remapped electronic dizzy, and a wideband i hope.
Currently half re wiring the dash, changed to a blade fuse fuse block, added wires for fuel pump, stereo, e fan, gauges, and headlight main power.
