just bought the magazine
huge effort on that car and a great article- just make sure there are no fuel leaks (after what happened to Mark's car after it featured in the magazine!)

Cheaper to buy an s54! They do look nice though, but 1850 plus fitting, remap etc.

s38 have the wrong port spacing, s50 are better as the port spacing is correct.

but I still have to build my 3.0 m52. I don't think it will need anything else besides that to make it a good balance of power and driveability. Although them Jenveys do look fantastic.,
