Sounds interesting struggler!

I'll think about that, could be a neat little trophy!

Does this mean your not racing now!? (Hopefully it wasnt too expensive!!)

Cheers! :)

They would make interesting trophies, somethimg out of the ordinary yet definately car specific.

I hope to get there, in something ! I may well throw a combo together on the cheap just to get the car mobile again.

Below the head gaskets I managed to salvage almost a full set of sump bolts, the timing cover, balancer and flexplate. The intake was OK (lucky, it was borrowed) and the heads have a few bent valves so yes, it was expensive. :cry:

This is a video for Keith/Whiteknight/Ol' Smokey. Mate this is a good reason to get rid of your cheese cutters and run something you get traction on!

Just before I post it, I will put up a disclaimer about the graphic content in this video as it will make many of you cry and cringe. If you do NOT want to get teary, then do not open the link. :spoton:

No problems.

I never run them at the drags Bruce.

Just have to make sure all fluids can be caught - typically this is just the radiator overflow and simple solution is a 600ml water bottle.

No worries, noticed you have been a bit quite and figured things must be a bit hectic. Need a hand with anything feel free to ask!

$200? h'mmm a lil bit rich for me, I was talking to Danny earlier this morning and was going to give him a run. Will have to think hard now that I know the dollar cost.

Al.

I received a call from Dannys workshop this morning to take the car in ;)

We are fitting these....

As soon as they are fitted I need to do a good number of small local trips into town etc to run them in before we head for Bathurst very early Sat morning.

Cheers
