You're looking at around £1400 for new set of CXN's. Although mine look similar mine are actually from abroad.

RSCat,

Well reminded!

Mike,

Have'nt been through my email yet, but yes saturday is fine! Long story about my wheels, but I won't supply them for anyone as its way to much hassle to sort. Took me 6months and muchos hassle to get made and even then there were problems.

Head gasket is the risk, not the engine.

Dont worry mate

My engine was BOG STANDARD when i had the conversion done. At the time it was running all of 9psi and a standard pipe still

The ONLY thing that the stage 1 did to mine was the clutch, but that was after about 5000 mile, 3 top speed runs at Brunters and a few 5500rpm launches I all ready had a Group A gasket on it

Just one more thing, when me and pops did our top speed shoot-out at brunters we both drove there and back after doing numorues 155mph runs without 1 single problem

Roll on Saturday for you i say
