    I would be inclined to advise a 325lb, to take into account your F28 badboy, and the fact I presume you'd drive it on the roads too?

    They're 300lbs at the mo and standard avo length of 8" at a guess. Same ones I had on my red turbo and that felt lovely and flat on track, then again it was never pushed "that" hard.

    XE's actually look really small without the inlet. I saw Andy B's without the top hat or manifolds & almost didnt believe it was a big block.

    Good progress matey.

    It's not how big it is, but how hard you press it in. :D

    Not a huge amount done this weekend due to hangovers but I lowered the rear a little further and am gonna get some shorter, higher poundage springs for my fronts. I now have just over 13cm sill clearance at the back and I want 13cm or below at the front but its currently 15cm.
