2ndLow

Have you forgotten engine mods like the tuneup chips for electronic injections systems, tuneups by specialists on dynos, exhaust and turbo mods?

I would like to know the difference between 3" mandrel bent systems too, some require a separate dump pipe and others seem to have integral straight from the turbo systems ...

Smocky,

I am like Paul and have one of those hoses for your exhaust jack - 4 tonne though. Mine certainly frightened a few at Robe when it went k a b o o o m and fortunately Ken wasn't really underneath digging...... So when you have a new bag I have the carry bag, the rubbber sheets and gloves too. Oh, and a couple of small patches. I guess mine could be a pump cover or something.

2ndLow I think you haven't generalised anything on engine mods. I want to give Heather a 3" mandrel bent exhaust as the Nissan replaces the Tickford Ford series cars she had, V8 and 6.

Or a spare wheel cover John, certainly gave Ken and myself a bit of a fright. If Muddy's at your place this weekend let me know please, if he would still like those Narva's theyre his, might even take a cruise down there to drop them off and say gidday.
