No need to be jealous of him he's done a lot for the sport, just look at Bisping and how much of a real muppet he is, he shouldn't of even won his last fight.
U probably have scoring on the crank from the look of that bearing there was 0 oil clearance there, I would be unsure about the bore scrapes maybe give the engine to someone that can build it properly before your out more money.
Great build lad, a mate of mine had one of those rad caps on an mx5 track car and it turned it in to a kettle, my advice would be to get rid of it or check it out yourself to see if does.
I would far rather keep the OEM closed loop operation, it will take a lot more work to tune closed loop in this implant mode, if it fuelled this way I would buy one otherwise I would go full standalone.
I appreciate that Colin, I might have one made up but I will have a look around first to see whats out there, I would consider a good exhaust system either if it cold be posted to me.
