Great news!

engine arrived today just in time for the long weekend which means i should have a little time to have a play with it this weekend!

here it is

Just gave it a general degrease and pressure wash (some of the paint has come off.. but that will be fixed up later). Also got the RB25 lightweight flywheel and clutch on

with any luck i can get it test fitted in the K tomorrow..

Hi Kent,

You better reserve the number plate "CrazyK" now !!!

thought you all would be interested in this pic

Fits well, my only fitting problem (other than having to modify the front turbo's oil line to clear the mounts) is that the standard oil pressure sensor is to close to the power steering pump.. so i will have to relocate that

I am going to keep the RB26 sump (the custom rb25 one i have is crap anyway and didn't fit the RB25 let alone the RB26!), so i have marked up the RB25 sump, and i will have to find somebody skiled at aluminimum welding to hack and slash the sump for me.

unfortuantely don't get too excited, the engine is only in for a test fitting to make sure it fits ok, it isn't quite ready to fire up yet

latest update on the engine, should have some nice additions on the weekend

Looking good Kent, not long now and you'll be doing burnouts in it. Good work on buying the welder too.
