    Great blog Al, I like your headings, in rust we trust, bloc party etc!

    Are you entering a class of racing or just a dedicated track car?

    We have fitted your old exhaust BTW, looks, erm loud?!! It won't sound like no sleeper!

    I bet your new one will be seriously loud as it must be at least 3"?

      Cheers ..!! It would be easy to add a centre box to quieten it down if you wanted. It was not that loud on my turbo. Maybe I'm a it more accustom to it?

      It's built for sprints and hill climbs firstly but also the odd race. But no plan on entering any championships as yet.

          Great blog Al and really useful. Hopefully at somepoint you won't be able to resist dragging it to check it's 1/4 mile time. With all your mods it should be quite a shifter

                          Thanks, White looks good on Race cars!

                          I removed the fuel tank tonight and drained it into a jerry can.

                          Off into the garage now to do some more work on her....... :-)
