Finally have received my new exhaust system. It is a Vintage Speed Exhaust type4 into type1 system. It's all stainless and fits very well, it is a good design especially in the pipes from the head, it provides good access to the nuts to tighten them on. Wiring should be complete this week.

Not much has happened since last time we talked. I'm going to have to get my finger out if I'm going to get it done this year.

Been thinking about parts for the bottom end lately.

The dollar is good. Time to start spending.

Well its finally finished and its an arse kicker. Driveability is unreal handling and braking are brilliant. The engine was well woth the effort the 2270 type 4 is an excellent combo. Just want rain to stop and then i will drive the shit out of it. Lakeside raceway here i come. Looking forward to dyno day and warwick.
