Looks like it's going to be Goodridge brake lines, Charlesworth will get them with the correct fittings.
Latest update is that my engine is now in bits. New piston rings have been ordered, and should arrive on Tuesday. All the other bits of my engine look fine (e.g. bearings), which is a relief but pretty much what I hoped/expected given that it hasn't done a huge mileage. Once the new piston rings arrive, the engine can be rebuilt.
Waiting for the injector connectors to arrive from the US. I still have Lexus/Toyota as a backup (but expensive option), and still talking to Power Enterprise US about it.
Sorry, still no photos.

jay@buttonmoon hi steve,when do you get her back
When she's ready ! :biggrin:
Seriously, I want it done properly rather than quickly. I'm hoping that it will all be done in another two weeks from now (they initially said two weeks for the work but in my mind I decided to expect three rather than two, to allow for a few issues).

Back on the injector connector issue (just in case it helps anyone else), following my enquiry to them, Nengun have now added the connectors to their website as a separately orderable item, here.

Unfortunately things have ground to a halt at the moment, since the guy who was doing a lot of the work on my car, "young Steve" (not the Steve that owns the garage) was injured in a car accident. I'm more concerned about him rather than my car at the moment, to be honest, but it sounds like he wasn't too badly hurt and should be back in very soon to carry on with the work. Best wishes to young Steve for a speedy recovery.
