What's wrong with it operating at 97 degrees?

I love the lineup of relays on the front of the ECU box. Nice! I'll stick to my 2.1s with mechanical diesel pumps :D :D

Looking very good now with the engine cover fitted, but also needs a cover over the relays (sorry Robert and Will) and the distributor cover is a bit askew!! A slightly shinier air con drier would also be nice. Regards, Matthew T.
