My son took the car into his work for the weekend and he and his mate got stuck into it.

Looking really good!

 

SO i take it colour change to white? Shame I kinda liked the purple :jamie:

Na I'm thinking blue and yellow, the white is inside and the engine bay. The scrutineers used to have a sook every time they checked it becausethey said it looked dirty. So while the engine was out I thought I would give it a coat of paint.

......used to use the dirt to hide a few things I didn't want the scruitineers to see :jamie:

 

My trick is to w8 till they are about to check what I don't want them to check, then hand them my helmet to check and then the log book to sign and they forget all about it :-)

A quick question for any one reading this. Because I am using a 2tgeu block there is no provision for a mechanical fuel pump. There for I have fitted a Holley Blue electric pump and a Holley regulator. My question is, what pressure to run the fuel for Webers. I am thinking about 4 to 5 psi. Thanks. Paul
