Well that's it, we will do small jobs as we have time, but now is the time to enjoy some fruits of our labour,
and drive it, will be a fist fight who drives 1st, Me, or Myself, but I think I will drive it for now....

I like the colour scheme. It looks like a packet of Gunston on wheels.

Thank you very much all you guys, we do appreciate the feed back.
Got my 1776 long block Motor back form motor Gurro Tony Z and will be assembling it this week.
Got me a Weber 36/36 DCD with correct jets ready for the motor when assembled.
yes I know, said I will be fitting Fuel injection and MP9 ECU, but ass this will take time and we just want to ride, we will go with the Weber for now.
For the few wanting to know what we did to the motor to give it a bit of get-up and go, well here it is;-
We used two new heads, ported then and grooved them for fast ignition, upped the compression, and fitted new 1776 barrels and pistons, full set of bearings on a cut , ground, counter weighted and balanced crank,
Balanced all the parts, new oil pump, and drilled the crank for 8 dowel fly wheel.
Today we made the adapter for the 36 DCD weber to fit on the stock TP manifold, and polished it for best possible flow.
Will post photos for you tomorrow.

Hi Alan, thank you
No we will see what we get once she is running.
With a total body weight of 700Kg, it will not take much to get her to lift her skirt and go.
But she is not a racer, but we want to keep up with traffic and enjoy the ride.
