Well i may not need to now

Concidering i am still only running 10psi and it aint been set up we were both impressed.
But then that is the thing with me and him we build a car to drive it

Not good mews people just had it compression tested......... Nothing at all from number one, piston i am told was holding oil so that may be ok but it seems to be the exhaust valve that is fucked.
So me and squiz are tonight going to take the fooking thing apart, more news later peeps
