Hmm, you need to chat to the Team Guru boys, they used a cable change box in their yellow derby for a reason, rod change can be a pin in the arse when the engine kicks back n stuff.

I presumed you weren't using the fk rear shocks? pop round tommorrow i'm in all day and we can chat.

no-rice is the ...

easy mate, you live 2 mins walk from my house :lol:

pop round tomorrow after college and i'll chat to you, i need to buy those fk rear shocks off you as i know your not using them :wink:

saw car in workshop, looking good so far, i presume your gonna spaceframe the whole thing and then run the ...

well if u spend 8 or nine monthes on some thing its gona be the best lol

whilst sanding out your piston rings (great idea imo- all the 'best' tuners do it) why not take a flap wheel to the cylinder bores??? nothing like abit of blow by.

Also its a good idea to put sand in your oil, this will have much the same effect, but it obviously cheaper than wet and dry paper ...

Power = Current x Voltage

So, depending on your alternator rating you might get away with it:

60A alternator power = 60 x 12 = 720W

55A alternator power = 55 x 12 = 660W (getting dodgy if you've got lights on, will still work - but you'll start to drain the battery)

Littlehampton, near Worthing.

Yeah, you covered a good bit there. I can't think of anything else off the top of my head

useful info there...

unfortunately not, the passenger side chassis leg is prone to splitting or cracking, this is usally solved by either stich welding before it goes, or once its gone, welding in another brace to strengthen the front end, i know a couple of high powered g40s that used steel girder

it's worth noting, before your rocker cover is chromed, it will need to be smoth as possible (basically polished) to give the best results, chroming will only highlight the minor imperfections in the metals surface.

Cost me around £55 to have my rocker cover and dizzy cap cover triple chrome ...

90lb/ft cl.... karls was around 60lb/ft???

stock gt's.... good power.

90bhp i only got 76lb ft

shows that stock airbox's still hold the edge over ill thoughtout induction mods

any chance you could record some figures higher up the rpm range dom?

also if anyone wants to sell a 3f cam... (268 upwards prefered) i'm interested.

yoof

ok but whats your economy like at 75 on the m'way?

45mpg here nerner nerner ner ner :p

what's your performance like? nerner nerner ner ner :p

yeah, you're right Gareth - need all the engine wiring from the fusebox onwards. andy bodged his CL loom to a GT engine loom when he ran GT injection on an AAV lump, but it's not an ideal way of doing it.

heh, bring it on!

stock vs stock (and nitrous... mwohahahahha)
