Yes Its wrapped and I didnt wet it! The instructions say not to.

Moving the steering was a non starter!

The exhaust is all on and fitted and free of obstructions.

Did a few corrections today, had put the twin pulleys on end of crank on before fitting the plastic covers, so had to take them off which needed the drivers side wheel taking off to get at it.
Also refitted the oil cooler as that was in the way previously.
Then fitted the water pump and now the fun starts getting things in sequence.
Water pipes and wiring all seem to get in each others way and the mounting brackets over the water pump.

If I can get all the wiring and pipe back in this coming weekend I might just fire it up!
Assuming I remember to put some oil and coolant in! :whistle:

Thats a thought!
Hardly going to fill the rad and engine from the header tank am i!!
Guess I hold up the top hose and fill it from there!
