got the falcon running yesterday and it was going very well untill i pulled into my mates driveway today to have smoke coming from under the car popped the bonnet to see the hood lining coverd in flames and to make it worse my mate didnt have a hose just a small bottle of water :roll: theres a bit of damage couple of melted wires, melted the clutch cable and hood lining got the most damage tho think it was started by power steering fluid got onto the extractors....and also when we first started it the timing chain tensioner broke wich i just had a new kit put in :x so going to the mechanics tommorrow they are goin to have a look and see what the cause was......enough talking from me some pics below

took the car over to the mechanic today and they had a look at it reason why the tensioner let go is because who ever put the head on when the old owner had it tensioned it up wrong damaging the aux shaft and something else i forget now causing the tensioner to snap when i first started it and also theres not much oil flowing into the cylinder head....so now i gotta decide to find another motor or just get rid of the car.
