Finally after blowing up the engine twice, and having the car stolen (without the engine in :-o ) I have finally managed to get it through its MOT, now its time to run in my 'NEW' V8. Nice to be back :D :D

I think we need a few more details on the stories here :)

Good job getting the car back on the road though.
