Driven it to Lizard Point, then to the ice cream place on the Lizard penninsula, then to Sithney for a cream tea, then Padstow and then Perranporth for chips, then back to Hayle.

I am going to fit new rear bushes and ball joints as well.

also- the front bushes in my 'spare' wishbones were so difficult to shift when I tried to remove them that I damaged the wishbones. I have no desire to try to remove the front ones in situ.

A new ECU is not needed for the 3l cam upgrade, BTW.

Hole cutter worked a treat it still took the rest of the morning to cut slots in the outer sleeve of the bushes and beat them into submission

Going to drill out the rivets on the ball-joints next. Anyone know what the correct torque is for the bolts on the replacement ball-joints?

[feeutfo]

There's a thread on here somewhere with the torque settings. Iirc TB posted them.
