Couldnt get her started this weekend as still waiting on stuff 
Hopefully my gauges, t peice, and smaller header tank should come some time this week. Also got my gauges sorted just waiting on those to come today. Got rocker etc bk on, and engine oil changed. Tested water injection today (bloody hell its noisey) had it running without the jet on and was just trickling out which didnt seem right, anyway rigged the jet up and plumbed pressure gauge on just to see what it would get up to. Started off slowly, hit about 55 PSI and the water pipe burst off and soaked me 
Anyway touch wood will have everything this week and get it started for first time nxt weekend

hitman2k - might do the rims same colour as the rocker, the rocker had been sprayed shadow chrome, the pictures dont even do it justice, very wierd paint indeed.
