I am a fan of the old "prog"

Do you have air cond??
Most of you guys seem to have gone the distance in that regard

Oh yes, forgot to mention that part. Air cond installed, using Denso air cond 505 compressor connected to a degree pully to minimise drag.

Next week, i'll be swapping the original alternator pulley with a Porsche 356 pulley which is smaller in size.


Cheers!!!
