There is plenty room to move them down and out. I'll see how it goes then take it from there. It's below zero where I live today - need all the heat we can get .

I drove it home the other day - 100 mile trip in the pissing rain, so it's needing a good clean now. It drove really nicely, but I didn't go over 2k revs just in case of any mishaps :) . It's geared to do 36 mph per 1000 revs, so 70 was just under 2k. Ride is surprisingly plush, plus engine noise is...

Well, it seems to be working as it should now - no real idea why though, but Ross played around with the idle control valve by disconnecting and reconnecting, plus took it for a scary drive to see if the gears changed. It's going out again on Sunday for another drive to sort out brake balance - fing...

I sent my PCM off to Dynotorque in Birmingham to get the vats removed, the EGR removed, and the gearbox set up to match my axle ratio and tyre size. I asked them to delete the rear O2 sensors, but they said they couldn't find that on the programme. The car started first time - not bad for sitting ar...

Still trying to get to the bottom of the fast idle when a gear is engaged. Disconnected the IAC connection (fast idle) and revs jumped from a steady 500 to around 1000. It didn't jump to almost 2000 as previously when drive selected, but it's pretty much undriveable like this as it wants to over pow...

Well, it's running and driving, but there appears to be a gearbox glitch - hope it's not too serious :( Some pics: In the sun http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b113/plastic_orange/Horace/IMG_8608_zps5afeabb8.jpg Headlining in http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b113/plastic_orange/Horace/IMG_8618_zps3...

I used a Lokar cable shifter with my box, but with hindsight would have been better with the mechanical linkeage.
I bought it in the states when on holiday - nice piece of kit.
