powertrain installation complete

we are starting to get close now...!

Last night I installed the RHS manifold and exhaust can for what (touch wood) should be the last time before the car is shaken down.

Some gratuitous engine install pics:

In terms of what is still do do before I can fire up the engine:

1. Fill with oil (Shell Helix 5w40 ordered and en-route)
2. Install final coolant hose (currently being welded), fill coolant.
3. Create engine wiring loom - coils, crank position sensor, cam position sensor, oil pressure sensor, oil temperature sensor, coolant temperature sensor/s, TPS, air temperature sensor, connect injector looms.
4. Install battery and main power to engine loom. 
5. Create loom for fuel pump driver module, power to fuel pump, fuel pressure sensor feedback to ECU.
6. Create loom for EWP control from ECU.
7. Create loom for Cosworth Omega dash, so all ECU outputs can be displayed.

So quite a bit still to do! Whether I complete all this myself is still a bit up in the air. I might do as much as I feel comfortable with, stuff like the coil looms etc is pretty straightforward. In the meantime I'll continue with the rest of the car, the plan being that I can get it in a rolling chassis state in case I need to take it out to a specialist for the remainder of the wiring and then mapping.

Stay tuned! :)
