Yup me too!

There is a local one, kinda, so might take it down there sometime!

I'd love to go to the ring, but it just seems too expensive >_<. Maybe in a couple years with the Vaux engine or something! S U M M A T

1380 as a temporary job

Then get some solid door frames - which must add the mini door company doesn't actually have any doors!!. After I've sorted 2 solid doors, then i can get the A panel on the N/S, which then allows me to fit the FG front end. Just leaves me the scuttle panel and the boot lid to sort. Then quick blowover paint job. Then build the frame, buy the brakes + suspension shizz for the conversion and start on the interesting stuff.


Also - place your bets as to what I might find inside my current engine!!

Cool sounds good.

Whats the spec on the head? stage 3 heads usualy have prerry large valves. I thought you had a standard ported 12g940.


Either way, that spec should move along quite quickly.

No idea really. Standard size valves. Probably not ideal, but the same could be said about the 40 weber
