So dragged this old thing out last weekends. Was looking rather grubby so sloshed it off. Have done absolutely nothing except take a few bits off this year. I will crack on with the stripping soon. Lots of bits to go on and change. Might even space frame the front end yet.

Quick dirty pic rolling on 14's

Okok, the only problem I have now it maintaining idle, when I drove the 5e with stock turbo and manifold it would throttle perfectly but be more light than a corsa haha...not it's running a piggyback system from Thailand, ran that with the stock setup before I did the rebuild and upgrade. Now I just need to iron out the issues to make her run again

I put it at the 5e timing, should I switch it back to 4e? I think that is the problem... My friend thinks that since it's a 5e block the timing should be there, but I think I should put it back to 4e

hello turbo grant, my friend wants to know which point I set the timing at, as there are 3 marks on the head...would it be any trouble from you to send a pic of your timing point up where your cam is?



much appreciated...Michael :)
