So got the new iron, ported it and assembled the engine with the semi pp housing, and the coolant system did not hold pressure. So i dissassembled it and found out that both the semi pp housings had leaks thru the filler used around the p ports, so i will nee to repair those before they can be used.

I decided to use the old T2 housings and just get the engine buildt and in the car, and then i can add the Semi pp housings on the next rebuild instead.
Assembled the engine with the stock housings and the cooling system not held pressure.
Shortblock nearly done:

Started on the ITB setup, made a flange from 12mm mild steel. Still needs some more work to the ports and cleaning up around the flange, but that can be done after the runners are made and welded on.

Some stuff has happened since i last posted.

Car is now matte black, engine is in with T2 turbo intake (itb setup did not have enough clearence to the exhaust, so it's on hold for now). Also converted it from 4 -> 5 bolt.
I have gotten myself a daily driver, so the FC will not be on the road and will only be used for one or two track weekends each year for the next three years since i have just started on a bachelor degree in engineering.

Got plates back on the car, atleast for a couple of months, feels great driving it around again

Ran a little rich, around 10 AFR. I have adjustet it a little and it now runs around 12 AFR at idle, and runs good enough now for me to get it to a friend with a dyno, so i can get it properly tuned and see what kind of power i will have to play with

Adjsted the map a little and hit 175whp on my friends dyno. For comparison his Dynocom dyno measured 500whp on a car that got 600whp on a Dynapack the previous day.
