He rang me to tell me the same, its a good spec car, then his next breath was "yours will be quicker"

Will take a while, as and when funds allow but Tony is happy to do it that way.
Proper touring car spec engine with some modern day mapping and a modded T4 flat out, That should do nicely
And a sprinkle of Tony's magic

Thats quite a big wee, all that new anti freeze on the floor is going to piss Steve off.
Steve had trouble with a leak before his road trip so hopefully a easy fix.

Nothing serious I hope. I've got a few bits lying around here like spare pump I think, give us a shout if you need anything.
Dont you go making some daft power figure and forcing me to buy a Hart inlet

Steve
Im more worried about what the leak is than the anti freeze
I just hope its not the block
I sorted the leak before i went, that was from the thermostat housing.
