It felt damn quick to me!!!

If you were steaming it on track similar to you were around that large roundabout on Friday then circuit times must have been good!

Re. header tank, I made some spacers for the top 2 mounting bolts out of the same material I made the manifold spacers from and also made a small spacer/bracket for the bottom mounting, looks like a figure 8.

You can't see the spacer but you can just about see the 2 bolts here:


Spacer just about visible here:

Andrew, that is probably the best way to do it, my method cost £1.49 from Halfords and although you cant see it, there are about 3 washers under each bolt

ps, Simon, didnt remember ragging it too hard, but now the car is a toy Im not so mechanically sympathetic as I used to be when it was a daily driver

I would be chuffed if the torque was so early mind, as long as it held and didnt tail off savagely

its a time limited sale, a window of opportunity (I like that phrase) is presently open for me, if I lose this potential option then I will stick with the current car and carry on upping the spec until it really takes my breath away.
I would prefer it to go as a whole package really, although Im pragmatic about splittting it up, if/when the time came it might make my eyes water a little, who knows?
