Bring em on

Probably should have updated this, it got run on the dyno and the 225 mixer wouldn;t cut the mustard, so is now fitted with a 300A high flow, made 98KW at the bags and good strong tractive effort

Also mate bought a $90 starter of ebay, thats half the size and along with rangie bumstops it clears well, so all is well

Old mate took his Jag before I left for Tas and hasn;t called so must be happy

I know where a VQ 5l stato is for 2k, still being driven, I may even know someone who can arrange fitting
