check the oil before you leave...look under the bonnet to make sure every nut bolt clip and bracket is on where it should be.


dont tolerate scratches anywhere!

yep...a short motor coming up.

I told Peter West at TMR that #16 had crapped itself.

No reply yet (2 weeks).

Definitely needs a Link ECU and uprated injectors...will do mine I think.

Location: An island off southern Tasmania.		Yep...the crank got chewed out and the bore etc is still fine of course.
It will only take a few hours to change the crank etc won't even need to take the heads off.

Sounds like a smart way to do it.
