Its my 1776cc the buyer backed out last minute after paying for a refresh which was a bonus for me, I also added a new kennedy clutch, managed to swap my dellorto 36's for webber 44's for free, New valve springs, when i bought the van it already had a cogbox recon'd 2L geabox and the engine bay had a facet fuel pump fitted, i'd already purchased an MSD ignition system for when i go BIG so that went on as well.

All in all quite a difference to drive

my p.b. previously (in the grey panel van) was 17.7 @ Big Bang 2007

Big Bang this year in this van having only been in it a few weeks, i ran a 17.2

I'd been running my panel van for 4 years and every year had knocked 0.1 or so off my time from 2004 big bang 18.2 down to 17.7, so to knock 0.5 off in my first time out BLEW MY MIND

p.s. I'm still to take the fan belt off and get proper serious
