Marco's First Car Project AKA Scarlet / daily driver



  • Well it's because the car wouldn't start, I redid the timing belt then later found it was the battery. I might put them back on. Tbh they're a bigger chore than doing the belt itself! I have a chopped off lower portion on with the timing marks. Keeps things clean and crap out I guess, I know plenty of probetalkers don't bother.



  • How did the battery fit in there, Marc? Thought it wouldn't fit with the straight-neck IM? Just get a small battery?



  • It will fit jay but theres almost a 90 degree bend straight out of the manifold. It is not as efficient as it should be but prob won't even notice the difference. I have the battery in boot on mine just to move a bit of weight.



  • Ah right, cool, cheers man :)



  • Yup it's very tight. You can't really use the stock tie down, I used a ratchet strap, which was actually a very easy way of getting it in and out!
