Just got back from picking my S1 engine up from Tubbs at Morespeed,which he has totally rebuilt for me, the attention to detail and the finish is just awesome, if it goes half as good as it looks I will be well chuffed I asked Tubbs to take some photos to post as I dont have a digital camera and if I did I wouldnt have a clue how to post them anyway . It wont look as shiny as it actually is because Tubbs covered it in wax to prevent any corrosion while he waited for me to pick it up, anyway a BIG thank you to Tubbs and the guys at Morespeed and on with faze two of the rebuild chassis and suspension :D

Polishing is dirty, labourous and extremely boring, well worth the money they charge you to do it, IMO.
Guess what I've been doing all afternoon ;)
