You've conviced me to leave my front bumper off when I change my front end .

Where are you planning on putting your front number plate?

[tuktuk]

cant wait to get it back tomorrow night hopefully there wont be any problems

[tuktuk]

It's looking great!

[tuktuk]

thankies

picking it up soon

[Angelic_Fruitcake]

bet you can't wait!

I was going nuts waiting to pick Rupert up when he went in for a scuttle repair, and he was only in for a week lol

just got him home after tuning... snapped another rocker and its down on compression on number 4

rocker is snapping as the double valve springs that are currently on are binding, so bought new ones to go on.

compression looks to be leaking from the head somewhere, got to check the seats and go from there.

other than that, the timing is done, suitable needle is in and once head is re-done fueling should only take him 5mins

its running at the minute, and an improvement of before it went in thismorning just sme nigglies to sort hopefully !
