well i finished off my breather system today by blocking off the hole in the inlet manifold, cutting the bottom out of the pcv valve and gutting the innards and connecting up all the pipe work to my catch tank thats vented to atmosphere. idles smoother now so i'm well chuffed. also gave her a wash.

just need to clean and polish inside and out aswell as fill her up and get there 8) god knows when i'm fitting all that in as i'm busy the rest of this week and saturday HAHAHAAAA

I', thinking of putting a normal pinto manifold onto the saff, and running it N/A to Ford Fair, sure it'd run lovely.
