lol, I honestly think i'll find it hard to top that trip. Even with my engine failure I still loved it!
Were going out last weekend in august if you fancy it?
Well, the bad luck continues.
Before anyone asks, yes, the engine still is not sorted.
I left the engine to get sorted in december, and got a new block sourced in januraryish. However with a heavy workload, the block only got sent to get bored over easter. The machist has some problems with his equipment etc etc, but when he finally got to my block, he's discovered that cylinder 4 needs bored to 87mm to be anygood to me.
Now my pistons are 86.5mm (.5mm over standard) and therefore if i keep this block, i'll need 4 new pistons. Or I need to source yet another block which will bore to 86.5mm safely :(
So i'm at my witt's end at the moment, i'm fed up of delays and fed up with the whole car. It looks like i'm not going to have it ready for any show's at all this year with all the cockups, so much for the 25th aniversery of the Nova. :(
I've a few good friends looking out for a good block now, hopefully i'll sort something soon.

Theres a LET block on eBay right now.
On the other hand, its only a car show, its not really life or death TBH.
Yeah but I've aimed to have the car ready for PV, Billing and Trax, And at the moment only trax is looking likely. It may just have to do tho.Quote:
