Think first thing I need is a new box I'm fraid but after that I may go for lightweight windows/bonnet/tailgate! Think the next time I'm gonna run will be early next year (due to knackered box) so we'll have to organise a day for everyone to go down...

yeah sounds good mate, that was my first visit to pod yesterday, was good, wasnt a great fan of the muscle cars and bikes goin, but i enjoyed myself, i should hopfully have my 2.0ltr bottom end by then!!!
how easy are those short throw gear shifters to fit, how much do they cost and where do i get em from, yours looked the nuts!!

Craig

im tempted to go down to shakespear raceway in 2 weeks, its only same distance as pod south!

altho i may save my cash and wait till nxt year!

The B&M quickshifts are a bit fiddly to fit....but give a really precise change...pm northy he's selling on for 60 squid IIRC usually 150 or summut silly...

2.0 btm end should make you're car..rapido! :twisted:

yeah hopfully the bottom end with give me better acceleration i hope, gonna have the cams reset soon i think, they are set for better top end but i want more lowdown performance!!!!

ill pm northy, just love the way they add to that stripped out look coz im doin mine as soon as i sell my interior!!!

i wont be able to make pod till next year now anyway so gives me time to get my car sorted and running well but name the date closer to it and ill be there

Not sure about adjusting the cams mate my willaims was similar felt weak midrange, pretty good top end. Had them adjusted for more torque/mid-range and it just made the car slower...

Stripped out it's the future! :P
