Hi John, no i didnt video the start but you are right it flies although i think that with a 3.62 diff it seems a little low geared i will be on the look out for a 3.14 to fix that. I have been out for a run over the tops this morning, ten mile round run, takes a bit of getting used to but fantastic fun but have put it away now as its only on trade plates.

gerry with the big grin

Congratulations! I'm sure you will be smiling for a couple of days and then itching to get back in it! and a bussa engine for your first car!! I've only got a blade, I'm hoping to progress to a bussa so good luck with it. I've heard theres a turbo that fits straight on top of it. Look forward to trying to keep up with you on some track days!! Good luck with your SVA

Hi Jazz, thanks looking forward to track days, just waiting for speedo healer, gear indicator and power commander and i think we are taking the car to mk on sat am for them to check over and if it seems ok to them i will leave it there for them to sva for me as i wont have time due to work.

Good luck on Saturday Gerry I am going over to Cannock on friday to see Chris from the BEC owners club to assess what needs doing to mine to get it through the SVA. Can't wait to get on the road.
