nah there not to strict on oil leaks anymore since the new track has opened. I have seen with my own eyes old chev v8's with engine bays covered in oil build up get through. Just give it a quick spray with degreeser and a hose before you drive out there.

Hmmm... most of us in Syd-en-ey don't have water use permit..

One Day soon Oz.. soon.....

ITs having some pinging issues since this new cam.. got to give Kev a head to hog out for me...... its just breathing so much heavier ... too much dynamic compression now :shock:

Also designing a small water-injection system.... I'm consoled to the fact that an intercooler just isnt going to fit without some metal cutting or a shedload of money.....(think - replace grille!!)

Let me sort those issues and I'll think about it..... :lol:

Cheers
J

8th sounds good to me, gives me enough time to organise a dyno session.

Anyone willing to donate a set of slicks for the night?? :shock:
