Weapon!


My latest weapon for Better Launches with less spin! I picked up 2mph in swing speed and 5 mph off the club face = Much more distance & far greater control!!

Great investment...Shot 2 under and won our clubs President Cup.:smilegrin:

Dipstick is now perfect!!!:lol:

Engine is up to the 1st oil change. But nothing will be happening again until I fix a couple of fuel leaks. One of them is the fuel pump.:grind:

Went out on the weekend for a cruise. Here's a vid of me taking it easy getting some K's on this thing....until I get my bigger valve springs in.

I still only have single springs in atm.

:smilegrin:

I've got to be careful..My rev limiter can only limit from 6,000RPM +.

5,000 RPM is more than enough for coming up the range. Don't want to go past that with singles.

After all my elecrical dramas, car stopped down flagstone creek with no mob ph coverage..that was interesting!:crazy:

Had my starter rebushed for nothing because I thought there was problems there.:grind:

Still didn't have rev limiter function because the sparky didn't wire the ruddy thing up correctly! It now functioning for the 1st time ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:grind:

I've had toggle switch malfunction, so one of those is gone and I have a purdy aircraft type fuel switch for the fuel pump now.

Bug is in the shed with the engine out for head torque, new springs and replace both engine & gearbox seals.

The joys of having a car sitting around for a while.
