YAY, Sccobs all finished
just got to go and pick her up now.
And 1000 miles of slowness again :( |
couple of laps round the M25 or give it to me mate, have done 2000 miles in just over 3 weeks :D :D
|
bet you cant wait, again!
|
Mixed feelings TBH, I might park and cover her up though the winter. specially if its been mapped.
Slippery roads and 400+ BHP (and me) dont mix :D |
that's the sensible solution mate...but not the fun one ;) :D
|
glad to hear it's all back together and sorted mate. 1k miles will go round pretty quick. gentle run to work and back every day should sort it. that and an impromptue tunnel run? ;)
|
Yes a tunnel run is def on the cards :norty:
|
:D
|
:Suspiciou
Don't forget me :norty: Glad the car is back again |
Should have her back Monday, :)
|
just say when and where.
although need to pay mark a visit for a hole in the new rear box ;) will let you know when it's done. |
Glad your getting it back at last matie. been a long time coming :thumb:
Try not to break it again you nutter.:D |

Out of curiosity......
Is a tunnel run the best option when running an engine in? i would have thought smooth and gentle was the order of the day, not short sharp acceleartion, followed by rapid lift off.... :wonder: |
Wahey, nice 1 cookie. i didnt find the running in of the scoobies that bad, still plenty of bottom end grunt :D :D

Not quite, this is why I try to rack up a couple of hundred miles up on any engine I build before handing it over, smooth and gentle can lead to poor ring seal and an engine that doesn't produce the goods.

Essexboy - I was going to do the tunnel run after the run in period, my 0-60 times will be measured in minutes while its on the run in map :D |
yer......
far from it. even managed 300 miles to a full tank on trip from the lakes |
Well....got it back or what..big boy :)
|
Yup, all parked up outside now :thumb:
Really missed driving it, even restricted to 4k to run in its great to drive. Just need to do 1000 miles and put a front mount on, then the fun begins :luxhello: |
A nice 'ickle run from Hemel to the HWH & back will add a few more miles..... :)
