Re: Mario's ride
Not sure. I just asked the guy. I believe there will be another edition of them but don't know when. In worst case scenario we can copy mine

More great updates! 
Did you buy the aerial blank from an individual or is it an item on ebay or something? It's just that I need one too, and want something that fits! Any help I'd be most appreciated.
Oh and Pete (106pete) was working on some brackets for a larger rear setup if people were wondering.

Re: Mario's ride
I bought one from ebay. It's not perfect as hole is oval and round cap. Don't know any better solution anyway.
I should weld it before respray but now it's too late

H22A in my possession. Arrival and striping down
Yesterday I get my new engine. So officially I can announce my new project H22A TURBO. It's long term plan so I will be updating this just from time to time and I hope nothing will explode (but you never know).
First off all I wanna say THANK YOU to @crigal.bb6 for selling me an engine in very good price. Top lad.
As quick as courier dropped it at my place I went too see what exactly it is. Some pics I get before deal, and this is exactly how it came.




It was pretty well packed (4 pallets, 2 cheap boards and few metres of string) but even with this I found some damage to it. Nothing major and engine itself is OK but nobody will use alternater, oil pan and oil pick up pipe again. I will post sump and pipe pics later on as I stopped doing them with my dirty hands

Also it suffer a bit of rust. Flywheel what could be expected was little roten

But also cooling chanels and piping need some attention/ replacing


Going forward it was too heavy too move it. So I started to strip it down. Flywheel gone first. Then I took off everything from front side

and then intake manifold with wires

Next few steps was cambelt and sorounding parts and at the end of the day head landed on a separate pallet

Engine block is still in one piece. I just pull off an oil pan and find out other damage.

And last for today pic of more or less usable stuff I dissasembled

So thats where it is now. Well actually whole bunch is packd in 4 plastic boxes and sitting under my staircase. Over the weekend I'm planning to strip down and clean whole engine block. Then I wanna do some shopping and start assemble it. Some advise what parts to buy and garrage recommendation still needed. I know a lot of money will have to be spent before I put it into my chasis, and there is still a lot more to do.
Again many thanks to one of the fathers of this projects
