Hey all, well, I suppose the first thing, is that I have to take the Mini off the market,(not that it was really "out there for sale - I just really didnt know..) and postpone any more work to "Rota-Moke" - Not so bad, not much $$$ spent on it yet, but anyway on with the story.....

Mrs KazJim and I are expecting Number 3 to join us in April, a little Brother or Sister to Callum and Ryleigh and the Time just isnt there anymore....

But I'm continuing with The Brick, I"m so close to cracking the problems with it, it would almost be crazy to move on now.... I Still believe that 100@wheels is very possible on Pump fuel at a reasonable Boost level.....(Ok, I'm not sure HOW reasonable !!) - Oh, and I've just re-registered it for another year, So ............

So, Long story short, Having another Baby, Putting Rota-Moke on the Shelf and going a little Nuts on the Brick

On the Bright Side - This is Brick Now.....

Water Injection is sooooooo close to completion, and I've now got an A/F Meter ready to hook up and test (Going to make it portable, like a tail-pipe sniffer at the Dyno Shop...)

Once I'm happy with that, you are all free to drop around, borrow it, whatever.... just gotta remember its a Boomerang !!

Cheers all
J

(this sort of explains my lack of movement on anything lately, doesnt it ?)

Congratulations on #3, I only have one child (a 2 yr old) at the moment, and I reckon that 3 would be more of a handful than driving a mini with 100Bhp at the wheels. :)

If we dont dont have kids to follow us then there is not much point in being here. Apologies to those who have problems with producing kids.

I know of three or four couples who tried all the methods right up to IVF onl;y to find that mum nature said guess what "I'm late" !!!

Congratulations Mate - got three myself 24, 22 and 13 - all loaded with that bit extra
