[Benn]

so its as good as ya getting...

[Gaz86]

u gonna be using the new type belt setup or the bombproof old style

[Benn]

new,you have to surely?
i just cant not put rollers on...

[Gaz86]

id go with early setup with metal rollers

[Benn]

i'll say it again,
as the engine is set up to new the late type,i didnt think you can run the early...

[CraigGreen]

Too late now, you got the belt etc anyway. Gates stuff is the bomb (what I insist on).

Sump looks cool. The laquer may go dull mate, but I'm sure you will notice before anyone else does.

[The Simps]

Cool progress dude!

What you gonna use the blue silicon for?

[CraigGreen]

What you gonna use the bulbs for?

[The Simps]

Is that sarcasm Mr Green?! lmao

Just wondered if he was gonna use it for throttle cable casing or something like that?

[CraigGreen]

Is that sarcasm Mr Green?! lmao

[LongLiveTheNova]

Sump looks cool, nice and shiny.

[CraigGreen]

Just take whatever it is you want doing to bed.

I do all my best buffing under the duvet.

[LongLiveTheNova]

funny thing is it didnt take too long to do,
sanded it all at work on the orabital(sp?) then buffed it up,which was the harder bit,
killed my back,

[Jamie_F]

so can you fit the early set up then?

yup, need to swap crank pully, cam pulleys, backing plate and water pump and obviously rollers.

[Benn]

oh right,
cant be arsed with that,waterpump thats in there is new,

[Gaz86]

/\ what he said, i was paranoid about mine (the plastic rollers) so i switched it to early setup

[Benn]

ah right,
not to fussed will all be new so should be ok,

[Jamie_F]

they will fine for benn, his wont see track time or owt as its a show car.

[Benn]

but only for one sess if i can get stuff done so i have no rubbing,
then it will get the nuts ragged off of it around coomb,
