The Campus Turbo 'in stock' build

Paint is finished, needs a gid buff, and I’m keen to see it in proper day light. But it looks ace regardless!
It’s back in my unit now, ive put the panels on and just got it ready to move up to the house.

Decided a week ago when I first saw the colour that it was going to look shit hot, Atleast in my opinion, and that really it should have a bit of bite about it, not just a standard engine.

So I’ve been having a scratch about for a piper 270 cam and a t25 size turbo, I’ll strip the engine and do a bit of a refresh, shells and rings, timing chain, cam and springs with a vernier. Or something along those lines anyway.
I’m tempted by a dirt cheap cam on eBay, we’ll see what happens.

I have forgone the idea of buying a daily run about, and “authorised” my own spending of cash on this to get parts in to build it. Engine stuff is pretty high on that list, need some bucket seats too, I stuck an offer in on an Omp wheel on eBay and got that for a fine price.

I need/want if anybody has kit lying around,

Bucket seats
Headlights
Short shifter possibly
270 cam or similar
T25 or similar
209 aei
Ph1 GTT grill - rep
Clio 16v/ clio 172 braided lines
Clio 172 servo and non abs master
Clio 16v grooved brake discs
Gauges, egt and afr

Hoping to get it moved this week coming, and hoping to get some stuff bought so I can have a go on my week off after.

Enjoy!

Who/what are the go to brands for engine kit, shells, piston rings, head gasket, timing chain kit, carb gasket kit,

Any help appreciated
 
Sure looks purty.
Think I've got rings and B/E's, might have some mains, I've have a look what brand, think bearings are Renault OE
 
Good to get an idea of what brands are what, if that’s standard fitment gear and you want to get rid I’ll happly buy it off you 👍🏼
 
Rings, AE

Think these are STD big ends, might need to look them up a bit more before I'm certain

Thought I had STD mains, but looking at them think for F series engine ( no pic )
Got loads of Vandervell mains which i think are Cleon/Sierra engine, but they're .25/.05/.75 and 1mm if anyone's in need

Two pairs are bigger in the set, one plain and one oil bearing, I need to thin shit stock out a bit, so if anything is useful bearings are £20 posted , rings £40.
There' s some marked up as R20/30, so possible some 2 litre J series stuff
Possibly @Brigsy will recognise C1J stuff?
 
Had a wee look there at the part numbers, seems to be standard b/e bearings.
I’d be interested in those and the rings

Currently I’ve no thrust washers at the big ends (from memory) is that common or should I be reinstating them?
