Right, thats it..

Post by hardhitter »

I was done by a middle age chap in a Mk 4 golf tdi on the way back home this evening. Havent a clue which engine it was, but he pulled a couple of car lengths in front and stayed about the same to 100 where we backed off.

Not impressed, I'm not being done by some old boy in an oil burner.

Can't wait to get this engine built and run in, so next time I won't be done.

Ah, the blue is still having engine developments. :)

Meanwhile I'm rebuilding the engine on my runabout, with added PS. :D It's costing me a fortune in bits to rebuild, but it will be worth it

I have all the parts needed for the rebuild on the runabout apart from the oil pump. I will get some pics of progress this weekend.

I think its possible you can have them Revo'ed to get a little more out of them.

Be good to see the finished GTs shaming and suprising people.
