  1. I had a new impeller fitted and used vortech themselves in the states I took the opportunity to upgrade to the si impeller over the sci which netted a few more psi I definitely wouldn't trust anyone other than vortech to do the job and I don't think they will sell you parts This being said I did come across a UK guy the other day thats rebuilding a load of chargers and seems to do things correctly so might be worth a chat with him regarding the aftermarket impellers you talk of https://www.facebook.com/UKSuperchargerRepairs Good luck
  2. Engine will be done end of march hopefully in and running end of April Just fitting it in around all of life's commitments ๐Ÿ™„

Long overdue update on this. life well and truly got in the way this year and I ended up buying a stop gap love or hate the looks what a car it is to drive and dose all the family duties realy well so think it might stick around for a while.

  11. What temperature is that at Dave ....I was watching a huberman vid the other day where he was saying there's no data to say less than 10 degrees is necessary......I'm just trying to be a pussy here ๐Ÿคฃ
  12. So finally had chance to drop the engine off to the machine shop today with @350Butcher It's gone to https://ricwood.com/ for the work my buddy has him build all his race engines so he should be good enough for my old z๐Ÿ˜… we also managed to find time for a good old breakfast to fuel us up The engine should be back in a couple of weeks and the build can start going in the right direction ready for summer ๐ŸŒž
