That looks like the bloke who ripped my engine apart and refused to put it back until He was fed Bacon Sandwiches.

Knackered.  I was going to leave it until a certain Hampshire lad was going to drill the manifolds (sshhh, don't tell him, he doesn't know yet ::)), but it was a bit too bad to leave...

 :o

I can drill the manifold already. I have one of your spares IIRC.

::) - got a couple of spares in my garage for you as well ;)

How long does the drilling take? In this case, I'd prefer (if poss) to drill the current manifold, and put back on (so can't do it before I've ordered a kit).

Less than an hour, I'd say, once I've found my taps and the chuck key for my drill, etc. (must tidy the garage up) :-[.

I suppose at the same time, seeing as a certain Reading boy will no doubt be nosey, and have nothing to do, he could mount the tank at the same time ;D

September's out for me as we're away (and it's Mrs LD's Birthday ::))... May be able to do the first weekend in October, although I won't be able to join you until Saturday morning as I'm already committed on the Friday night. But would be able to do the Monday and/or Tuesday if required :y
