    Certainly will be considering a rolling road again ben..probably in the new year now with banger racing and the christmas meal coming up.
    Will speak with Nick on Sunday about it.

    To convert cally t to rwd cossie:
    Sell LET = +£1000
    Sell F28 = +£250-300
    Sell TXB (if I can't break it) - +£200

    Buy Cossie YB lump - £1000 s/h
    Buy Borg warner T5 box - £200 s/h

    Leftover = £300+/-

    To convert cally t to rwd with LET
    Sell F28 and TXB = +£500
    Buy Borg warner T5 box - £200
    Buy SBD LET-to-T5 bell housing - £200
    Buy custom clutch LET-to-T5 - £??

    Either way I would have less money if I kept the LET, also the cossie lump has stronger rods and crank, lower compression and a bigger turbo, IIRC the cossie lump can be tuned to around 400bhp BEFORE bottom end mods are needed, compared to the LET lump where you need bottom end mods after you pass 300bhp

    The cossie lump in a RWD calibra should make an awesome drift car as the cally's wheelbase is pretty long too

    Was quiet.

    We went to the new place and found it wasnt a hungry Horse but a Brewsters which is part of the same chain. We had a drink and was then told we would have to wait an hr and half for a table so we headed back to the Bell at Stoke Mandeville.

    Banger Racing and fireworks next month then we might have a meet in Dec, depends on the Xmas meal date.
