bit more on the project

Na thats the beauty of it, i was already running a S4 starter motor but a s3 will fit too, because you swap the tailends over its the same mountings and uses the stock prop, you just get the different gear ratios, be good for you with the mileage you do

Wished I\'d known about it sooner. Will have to try and get hold of a gearbox now !

Finally got round to sorting out the fuel pick up lines on the car, 10mm feed, return and breather to go in the stock tank

[mpk490p]

Well another years motoring 1800 miles and another MOT passed without any issues other than the advisary on front wheel bearings that have been sat in my tool chest for 3 months!

[mpk490p]

been working on a different fuel filter set up which should help with flow, finally did the front wheel bearings and washed / hoovered ready for rotorpop!

[mpk490p]

Now looking for a FD (time to change and I can\'t justify both although this would make a great track car) car will be up for sale soon once I can write a full spec list but PM me if interested

[mpk490p]

Bump car now up for sale in the relevant section @ £2999
