Of course that Irish prick Murphy showed up, it took over an hour to remove a stripped nut in the hardest to get at place,
Dremmel was used to cut the little bastard off :roll:

It was all worth it in the end, three guy's with stupid cheesy grin's because it sounds like a
big block V8 now and goes like a cut cat :shock:
Seriously quick! You would think you were in a sports car and she even spins up the rear wheels ffs! :kuda:

Probably not near as fast as my 84 van.

This is the only picture of my van that shows the true beauty of the whole thing, ignore the motorcycle in the foreground. Everytime I drive my van I think I'm in a Porsche, especially in the twisties.

thanks for you help today guys, the exhaust was a concern even up until we finished it I was thinking we weren't going to get it done.
Zorsts are always bothersome.

The claim is upto 35% more power and upto 20% more fuel efficiency which is a big claim but based on the seat of the pants dyno power gain I am sure it is feasible, and the power gain is big :shock: :twisted:
The V8 diesel is not an efficient engine by any means, so we will see after the GC/EC trip to NSW and back towing 2t of trailer we will compare it to the last run I did to Brissy.

You remind me of Red Green in the "The Red Green Show" at Possum Lodge, now there is a man who knows the virtues of duct tape :lol:
