Sure the pvd kit will be more than up too the job. And you get the non-tapered driveshafts too!

PVD kit is shit the engine mounts dont set the engine up in a way i would class as satisfactory. You would be better off getting the Carquip mounts and getting the drive shafts from somewhere else. Rick

off for paint on the 25th!

Shorley the driveshafts would be fine though.

I must say though, that the Carquip mount kit is "The Daddy" though.

What is the point wasting money on the kit for the driveshafts? John Hilton has a set of tapered driveshafts for sale due to him scrapping his 2ltr project. Rick
