Here's a vid of the engine back in after painting the engine bay and fitting a straight through exhaust. The noise was immense, the muffler will have to go back on I think haha. The jet unit was connected up at this point to check the whole drivetrain. A splitter from the hose is sending coolant to the engine and also to the impellers to help the impellers bed into the ABS wear rings in the jet unit.

Painting the Engine Bay
With the engine restored and repainted, the engine bay now looked very tired in comparison, so following a good attacking with the degreaser and a wire wheel, it was painted with POR-15 which sets rock hard and provides a waterproof, fuel-proof barrier.
