I am Iron Man...

Just a short update before i leave. Set for a month trip to Khazakstan for work as of tomorrow so there will be a bit of silence until next time...

As a result i didnt want to embark on anything drastic until then. Dont like to leave things half finished! I cleaned up the top end parts of the engine and set about detailing them. As this is the part most often seen when the bonnet is up i thought a striking colour scheme was in order. Something unseen on RV8's from what i have researched. The result was this:

Cam covers in red, Inlet manifold in gold. Took a bit of inspiration from Iron man. A bit different!

Will get a proper pick of the engine rebuilt next month when i get back. That way i can get the lump in the bay again, prepped, and ready for the fabrication of the mounts!

Stay tuned!
