Kermit II (K-II) Triple rotor rebuild project

Fairly bit of expensive kit is the battery. Found it on MRP, I don\'t think people will realise just how much weight you will save by using that battery.

Who\'s done the manifold for you? Pip?

Absolutely,not only the weight, it\'s the size, we can mount it ANYWHERE and the brackets don\'t have to be substancial etc.

Yeah, Pips doing the manifold, can\'t wait to see the new turbo, wastegate, water pump, oil pump etc in the flesh !!! lol

I think a lot if people will be e cited to see it.

Are you running an EWP?

lol. I didn\'t want to but because of the size of the turbo it was unavoidable.

Which EWP have you gone for then?

Sicknote · December 08, 2012, 12:36:55 AM

Hi Marky, didn\'t discuss it with Pip, I just said get it done !!! lol

My last one was a Davies Craig one, will prob be the same on K-II.

You can tell I\'m bored waiting for Pip to sort the manifold out..... trouble is when I\'m bored I have other ideas,
thought I may as well get a tool box for the race truck and then get the colour coded tools to the car. lol

It\'s official.... I\'m a tart !!!!

Pry bar and a big screw driver... you\'re anticipating problems that require finesse to fix then? :Giggle

What are you using for a truck?

Sicknote · December 12, 2012, 04:57:10 PM

This little baby.

Brett · December 12, 2012, 05:46:34 PM

Ooooooh! Nice! Got a bunk in there too?

Sicknote · December 12, 2012, 05:49:44 PM

I wish, accomodation would take me over the weight limits.

So you have a sleeping bag in there then? :Giggle

I\'m looking at converting a historic in to a transporter ;-)

Sicknote · December 12, 2012, 06:05:09 PM

lol, yep, I got this baby coz I won\'t need a tacho and its not speed restricted so can do 70mph.

Sounds cool.
