    God speed with this mate. I'd love to know it'll still live on.

    heres the bay when I had an 8v turbo in there. Just for inspiration.

    get it turbo'd, you know you want to

    on a side note, that picture if the 1.4 engine, what's wrong with that shell that you wanted the engine out of it?
    success is only limited by a weak mind
