yeah- wow that would be really cool if you can ! yeah- Hannah and I will be there tomorrow! Wouldnt miss it!

Gave my oil cooler a clean last night and its passable maybe until I hit one pot hole and all the fins fall out...



painted up servo all nice and shiny.



Now sorting out air cleaner etc. 14" edlebrock one I ordered was too big and fouled the bonnet. so a 10" one and some bodging should do.

oil cooler looks better than mine does LoL sure it\'ll be fine

why not DIY a silencer ... I posted some links on here to AusRotary not long back. Perforated tube, stainless steel pan scourers and some high temp rockwool and you are sorted. can make them to suit your car then

[yoeddynz]

I made my own system for my supercharged mr2 back when doing apprenticeship but it was easy then as I had anything i wanted sheet metal wise.
Perforated tube- where can I find that then? When i did mine i just rolled up my own tube out of perforated sheet.
stainless scourers!! wicked idea!!! i used as much stainless swarf i could collect whenever i machined s/s.

thinking cap on then....

[MikeLMR]

jetex sell perforated tube by the meter.

May also wanna try merlin motorsport and demon tweeks, although the latter can be expensive.

Both do repackable silencers and demon tweeks sell perforated tube too.

(I\'ve found Merlin Motorsport are quite expensive now as well ... they used to be very reasonable, perhaps it is only on items I have looked for recently?)
