Shit that’s an ugly power/torque curve, anything should be an improvement on that!!!

You can’t have too many special tools, especially if you have built them yourself

And just when I was starting to convince myself its functional not ugly, you go do that to the poor girl…

Nice work mate.

What you going to do with all your free time when your not breaking shit 

I found slow and steady won the race refitting it.

Looks pretty simple and cool to me, let us know how it goes…

Yea, he has a lot on the go, and it does look first class quality wise, I am sure it will be worth the wait when I stab the gas pedal for the first time…

Will do mate, got a few things on the go at the moment, one big one in particular work wise, if it comes off will free me up a little to get stuck into some of these projects piling up!!  Btw have decided its just far too good and original to rod, so will keep this as is, and build a rod one day from the spares ou family has accumulated over the years.

What’s he doing 30minutes a day?

I borrowed one like the top one when I first did mine.  With the latest tear down I just used a regular 3 jaw puller.

He is aiming to have them finished next week.  Its taking  along time, and patience is not one of my virtues, but not much I can do…

Is he finished yet?

ok.

You make me coffee. Then I watch you do mine. 

I just buy a coffee and watch the mechanic do it….

Pretty sure a man of your experience is all over this, but their set up was sort of like this.

I think with the FF, they had a front and rear bars that picked up on two chassis points for the string posts.  You bolted them on and could do the alignment anywhere.  Might be able to do something similar with yours to stop you having to use the jacks.  Not sure just an idea?

All well and good when you have a singe throttle body, ITBs kinda screw that option up…

Seeing your string lines made me smile, I remember when Matt as racing for Borlands and they do theirs similar, when I asked why they don’t have some swanky laser widget tool, they just said why spend money when string will do :)  Look forward to seeing ow it goes next meeting.

Wont be surprised if you end up cutting them off as IJ said, I am guessing you are using those big ass ally spanners for the AN fittings, and they need a lot of room, the more the merrier.
