I think the seats are early mv6 leather recaros.

[Andy89]

Thanks, have finnaly got some motivation to work on the car lately
Yes i've changed it into a manual, with help from some good friends

And yes those are original early recaro seats

Got the heads back from the workshop skimmed and cleaned, now it time for reassembly, had to grind the exhaust valves.
First head is nearly done only need to fit 6 lifters, but theres no hurry as i'm waiting for some ARP bolts. (It's possibe the car will be supercharged)

[Andy89]

Thanks guys 

I don't think they do Jesper 

Happening something here, but been sick a while and when i got healthy i cut my hand, so I can't work on the car 
Got some cams the other day, so now im just waiting for some ARP bolts and MLS headgaskets
(Don't get hung op on the black line, its just phosphate )

[Andy89]

The engine is starting to come back together 
I have ported the heads as shown and fitted sport camshafts 
Can't wait to get it running in the car and see what gains there are, had the car on a dyno last fall and got 200whp, wonder what i'll get this summer with this refurbished engine (last one had bad compression on one cylinder)

Looking good mate & great pics - but did you know steering wheel is on wrong side? 

[omega3000]

  Ultra clean engine , someday all omega's will be this clean  Nice work 

[Johnnyc]

Wow,that engine looks stunning!! 

[Andy89]

Thanks guys 
Last time i checked my steering wheel was on the correct side 
Its really starting to come together now, i'm hoping to have the car running by april
Had a good cleanup in the garage yesterday, got rid of alot of garbage, so now I can get something done this weekend

[Andy89]

Running by april was too optimistic, but have done quite a bit since then
Due to some wrong parts, I didn't manage to get the engine in until yesterday
But now it's just a matter of fitting the remaining parts except for the inlet parts, which are getting some work aswell
Can't wait to get it on the road, as it's been in the garage all winter








And lastly a bad phone picture of how far I got today

[Andy89]

Had some work done today as well, but takes long time when i'm so thorough
Managed to connect the ac system, powersteering and some wiring etc

[RobseyMV6]

Looks really good 

Well done, many hours spent but what a car and engine bay that many here would love
