Yeah pics Mofo!
I must say im very intrigued by this 1300 turbo engine route your taking, i can imagine it's not going to be to the tastes of sport "purists" but a new twist on what once seamed a rare thing (as in a nova sport restored on T40's etc) as i remember seeing none for years at the shows, and now there getting like nova's with XE's so i guess the 1300 turbo will come into it's own there, i can see the puzzled looks on the faces now! lol
Good luck dude, look forward to seeing updates.
Scott
Need to take some mo fo lol
Could do with swapping the rear shelf supports with you when I'm off next :thumb:
Edd might agree, but it's nothing that's irreversible.
For all the negative commebts it might provoke, some 40's 'could' go on & it be made standard, though isnt a Pierburg 'standard'?
No worries. You've got some other supports for me yeah?Quote:
