Hehe, yeah. But obviously that all depends on how much load was put on the rollers at the time - which I have no idea. I'll sort some pics out once I get a chance to clean it. It's filthy!

Errr, I think so... Cost a lot due to issues with the first engine build, which was a real downer.

Ha! Yeah, let's do it. I'm still really looking forward to getting all the AST goodies from you.
No, 5th wouldn't pull like that, otherwise I'd be pulling 130mph in seconds. Still, it's a huge improvement on how it was. The torque spread is really nice. Just boot it and you wizz off. I need an oil cooler ASAP! I wouldn't go near a track right now.

Yeah, but in a different way. I wasn't expecting the power delivery to be as smooth. I wasn't expecting the torque. With the wilder cams, I thought it would be really bad low down, but it's not, it's actually better. Below 2.5k, it's a little jumpy. It's also a little jumpy in general when you come off the throttle, but I think this is the norm for bodies. Correct me if I'm wrong. It idles at 1k, and is spot on, smooth as you like.

as i thought mate. i can relate very well with what you mean as you know i drive cars with tb's with lots of different state of tune and the bodies make things simply better everywhere. its only when you g to a manic cam where you will loose drivability (and make 90% of people slower).
now i suppose its suspension and get it lighter / enjoy the damn thing.

Spot on mate.

Thanks dude. I will sort some stuff, don't you worry. I'm a bit busy with work at the moment, but as soon as I get some free time, I'll get down to business.

I was gonna say, what you doing pissed at this time? But then I remembered. It's funny driving past people, and they look on with rather confused expressions on their faces, as if to say, "Is there something wrong with that car?" Haha.
