Only took a week to arrive from Germany but my new Schrick cams are here! Much cheaper than getting them in the UK.

Hopefully the engine will be out this week and on its way down to SC Porting to be stripped, cleaned, machined and rebuilt!

Also ordered a Blackline ATB and Yellow Speed Racing coilovers. Should be an improvement on the Stance+ in the car currently.

There’s an UltraGauge on the way too and I need to decide where to fit an oil temp/pressure gauge as it looks likeit could go in a vent or next to the dash dial.

Is it worth getting an oil pump chain kit whilst everything is out? It's not something I've ever changed on other cars so not sure if it's something that wears or not?

I would, and maybe an oil pump, at the very least get yours apart to check the barrel for scoring

Thanks! I'll get the chain kit bought and garage to check the pump. I've always changed pumps previously when doing engine refreshes so probably will with this for peace of mind.
