Sure was! Did not expect to get it all done in one day, let alone starting at 11:30 or so.

Yup! She fell over yesterday and still wanted to help, definitely a keeper :)

She even spent the whole of yesterday helping me wire in my new ECU! So now I have an EMS Stinger 4424 in the car which a good mate of mine donated to the project.

I also knocked up this bracket on my CNC plasma to hold a set of LS1 coil packs at the rear of the head. They clear the bonnet and the firewall easily and even allow you to put on the electrical plugs with the brackets fully installed.

I will be manufacturing and selling these once I have the design finalised. They'll be made from aluminium and come with stainless hardware.

Thanks mate!

Big day today on the MX-5. I finished my coolant reroute:

I also made a 36 tooth trigger wheel for the crank on the CNC plasma, which I tacked onto the pulley (I'll pin it with some M4 bolts before I run it in anger), along with a CNC'd VR sensor bracket

Image

Image

Now I just need to make a lower coolant mixer (I don't have a stock one and my radiator is a bit different to stock) and a throttle cable bracket. All the rest of the stuff is EASY!
