sounds like a small bore rally beast to me. lovin' the 1071 spec, higher than my 1098, but tell us what it puts out should be a large figure...and with that bottom end, and final drive, it should haul ass too. good show

[Sleepy Stu]

JetBlick is your car gonna be at Malvern cause i only live in Worcester and im gonna come along to the show to have a look should be good fun its my first mini show im well excited!!

[JetBLICK]

[JetBLICK]

Mwhahahahah after making double what i expected selling everything i dont need, i've started getting things together.

After previous advise from swifty, i opted for the SW10... made the phone call yesterday, and look what arrived today...

One billet SW10 sire



Also today we went to MED Usually when you go to an engineers they can be quite miserable, and it just tends to be business and nothing else. MED is something else! we got chattin and must have been there for nearly an hour, practically got a guided tour of the place. You get the same sorta feeling walking round MED as i rekon women do walking down a high street of designer shops. The fact that he had the time for us was awesome, and we got to see some amazing stuff, like his ultimate modified pistons, dog gearkit, 8 ports... i could go on forever... ooo and we saw some prototype stuff, tee hee

It made what i walked away with seem rather petty .... i'll be back one day!

LD roller rockers


ARP head stud kit


Oilway pipe, flywheel bolts, 5/16 sump kit with copper gaskets


Still sorting out a big minispares order with simon, but still not rushing, i've gotta wait till i go back home at christmas before i can build it up.

Oh... and, i couldnt resist, they've been for sale for months now, and i recently found out that they are no-longer in production apparently, so i've bought 6 10x6 GB minilights off Gr4h4m not that i can fit them for aaages, because i need smaller brakes.

Giggidy-giggidy-gooooooooo
