Mark,
did you try Camcoat
http://www.camcoat.u-net.com/
we used them on all our Porsche cars, pistons were done in 3 different coatings, and inlets and turbo pipes coated inside,
Paul.

Well been a while since I had an update, that being said I was in China for 3 weeks before Christmas, then Christmas, so the time soon dissapears
Nothing too exciting, pictures should tell the story
Finally got round to fitting the front tyres to the new rims, thanks to some additional support from Jerry. Wasnt that bad of a job & not a tyre lever in sight
Managed to score a bit of titanium, so used it for making the coil brackets. Didn't need to be titanium, but matched the throttle bracket. Still need to punch some holes in the them, just need to borrow a swage punch or what ever their called.
Throttle also working now
The plumbing is still on going, but nearing the end
My mate Steve turned me up a new fuel pump drive, which I collected today. The original drive bolted to the front pulley & was spacing pulley to far away.
Fuel pump mounted (Was a lot quicker to type than physically do )
Need to sort out a longer belt
Few other general plumping jobs done; Oil pump to Filter, Accumulator, Oil feed for turbos, etc, etc
Car

Got a lot of good bits on there Mark, thats gonna be quite nippy
Do you have a run on delay to let the oil cool the turbos before shutting it off after a run or road use ?
or you doing that manually.

I haven't got to that yet, I have a turbowerx pump, which I might rig up as purely a recirculator
