Not boring. Keep the pics and updates coming. Always good to see other RRC's being done up.

What I have been lead to believe is that the efi loom is separate to the main loom so should be able to remove it and the engine still work (starter alternator and coil)

Ahhhhh that is interesting, there is a connector under the dash I had to disconnect, I have not investigated what and where it's going but thought by the placement of it there could be some signals to and from the engine and instrument cluster that run along that connector.
But if you are correct that would be awesome.

These are my baby's rocker shaft's before, during, and after assembly, ready for work.
So most of my parts arrived just the exhaust system still to arrive but that wont stop me from starting assembly.

The theory with Britpart usually concerns metal on metal moving parts eg bearings etc. I have Britpart HD springs and they are absolutely fine.
