Lee's Garage

[Brian_S]

Yep in deedy. Will try and pick up the SBD order before work tomorrow, which has the other injectors and temp sensors in it.

Just about to email Jenvey a photo of the fuel rail. Would have done it today, but couldn't find a camera USB lead in my bag! lmao

[spanishfly]

You mean the SBD order I infiltrated?

[lee303]

but couldn't find a camera USB lead in my bag! lmao

pmsl! its actually at the garage! bought it back as it doesn't actually work with the bullet cams, the one they supplied with it for the charger does ofcourse lmao D'oh!! sorry dude!!!

[Ghost_Walker]

ah see normally i see them do it on the telly with the sump off still, but least you know it's not leaking now

[lee303]

yeah, all sealed up now and bolted back on, got the box and engine together now, all ready to mount to the subframe for the last time!!this weekend should see some pretty strong progress, but for now, have some slightly dull slightly blurry photos of v6 niceness

[MikeITB]

I think that's the same size as my whole car! :| lol

Look forward to seeing it in

[lee303]

its actually quite compact for a 6, its just the long gearbox thats fooling you lmao

[tinxy]

lol, it smells of petrol a little, thats probably what it is lmao, shame we didn't get to meet mate, or did we? never know at these shows...

ah hopefully some cameras caught this session

vids are uploading now....

was a good day out, car went well, was taking it fairly easy in some places, and then it had a fuel leak out the filler cap, which gave the marshals something to chase after me for in the paddock lol, back home and in one piece though, so its all good!!

[tinxy]

ohhh thats what they ran after you for when you left the track lol

nahh pal i was with my mate and his missus and they walked off so had a look and then had to try and find the muppets
james

[lee303]

yeah, it pissed fuel out of the filler neck after the session, will have to investigate that before germany
first half of the session is here
YouTube - start
second half still uploading, [racing driver excuse book]i had the dampers set too hard on the rear[/racing drivers excuse book] so the first two laps were a bit hairy, but once the tyres warmed up it was pretty good!

that thing goes like a ****ing rocket mate,

how did the new floor hold up ?

[lee303]

lol, cheers, was all good, didn't fall off or anything lmao, the splitter catches on the way into the chicane, but thats ok, felt quite a bit more stable at higher speeds too

[Melv]

Certainly goes well Lee. Well done.

excellent look forward to seeing this again soon, when is it next out on track in uk?

[lee303]

erm, not sure, gonna do the total vauxhall live thing i think, but germany is next up, and i'll see whats about when i'm back....

[Rick Draper]

Lee you have probably lost the ball that sits in a cage at the bottom of the filler neck. It sits just inside the tank and stops the fuel going back up the neck. I managed to push mine inside the tank on my nova.

[Benn]

Ah sitting in the pit and waiting... I get so excited but so scared at that point. Gutted i missed it.


Who the funk took a Rover 75 out? haha

[lee303]
