Shouldn't James have returned from his blast up dual carriageway by now  :-?

Maybe James didnt bother with the test run and just started on the beers instead  ;D

He could have got stuck behind a tractor..... Jaime have you been out testing your rad  ::)
I have, but unless he has been blasting up the A43 and around Radstone, I doubt he would have been held up behind me... ;)

TD was correct...

I hit the pub before going for a test run! I thought I'd be a good boy.. and I won't test run it, until I'm on the way to the MOT Centre ;D

The MOT will be the next part of the project..!

Once it's MOT'd.. I shall get it insured, and taxed, and I will once more be in the world of V6 ownership!!

This time with a 3.0..

Tunnie, bring it on, I'll happily show your sennie up :P (actually doubt it.. but this V6 IS running sweet...!)

Its already proven that a half decent 3.0l auto with a faulty multiram has the measure of his senny ;)

Ahh well.. my multiram is OK.. .I can see it moving when I rev it.. Bring it on ;D

PS... yes, I will be doing a HOW2... or at least a detailed write-up on the way I did it, on a DIY basis...

My Senny did have a major fuel leak at the time!

Maybe a mini 6pot meet should be in order and test them out  :D

And what difference do you think the small fuel leak would have on performance?  I'll give you a clue - somewhere between zero and nothing ;)

I was pi$$ing out and not under its propper pressure, it felt smoother once the new pipe was on, less lumpy.....

Excellent work James, you must be very proud - I would be!

Now that you're the head rebuilder extrodinaire... how'd you fancy a few cases of beer in exchange for some help getting these 3.0L cams in of mine?

I'm going to be putting some metal rocker covers on at the same time  - I have four new camshaft oil seals, some green sealant (and boy is that stuff green, it looks like spent uranium or something!) and my cams will be here before the weekend  :D
