Suicidal Sapphire Is back on the road.

Today i drove the car for the first time with the new automatic engine in and the Modifications as detailed below

Engine #4
Automatic Inline 4 8V DOHC, modified from automatic to manual via reusing sump and flywheel from engine #3. Flywheel bolts were replaced as was the sumpgasket. All parts were throroughly cleaned to ensure a good seal (a twinky that does not leak!)
4-2-1 Exhaust Manifold, I am currently trying to source a performance midsection and backbox for the car as cheap as possibled, as more modification are on the way which will render this exhaust useless.
Another modification I plan on for this engine, is exhaust wrap the headers and downpipes. This improves the gas flow due to less friction with temperature: as well as lower the intake temperatures as there is less heat under the bonnet, this moodification works especially well with cars using a induction kit.
