Thanks for sharing man, those are great photos.

Is it a 3 litre from a 75 or a 164?

Thanks guys.. Sheldon the engine was from a 164, but as you would know all the bolt on's are from the original 2.5L.

The engine was put in about 2 years ago but after a couple track days (very fun track days) it seemed to develop a bit of an oil addiction.. it seemed to like oil more than petrol! Then waste it all out of the exhaust, but it left a lovely blue cloud everywhere i went :)
