Things are moving on at pace, well for me anyway, finally managed to get the engine and gearbox and starter fitted together after some minor fettling for bolt head clearance. Removed the plugs skooshed some oil down the bores, connected the battery and pressed the button, she turned
. There was a sign of sludge from bore 1, did the oil down the bores another three times and it seemed to clear up, checked the compression and it seemed fine. I will have to sort out the electronic ignition and a temporary fuel supply and see if she will fire up.
