Post Ok ok. It's a pet peeve some of us have got.

I best clarify. It's not people having a dig about repowering minus Jeep brand motor...it's the fun police that should shut up. The 100% ADR approved asses.

I'd actually love debating the pros and cons over the engine choice.

It might have...you know...actually been really really helpful, educational, interesting, entertaining for many. People would get a buzz from the failures and wins over the next year or so.

Ok, so you think it's going to end up on national news or some shit? Then +%*@en sit back, and enjoy the show...at someone else's expense.

There is going to be set backs, broken bits, that's a given...with me. This was never a daily driver city commuter.

I love build threads. I check them out all the time.

I'd love to give back, show it all...but in here there's always those one or two blokes...'Hope you're fitting an ADR approved UHF antenna in the correctly accepted mounting position...because if that comes off and spears through some poor 7 year olds teddy bear...you could be in strife....'

@+%* those wankers should have been clippedby the mods in here... Tonnes of guys left
because of that crap.



Oh hey, loved the phone call, and someone wasn't happy I was late Always good talking to you Doug.

You're on the project build list for sure.

Ok.

I'm hesitating posting this up...

'Cos it means commitment











It's begun

VicRoads affiliated engineer is in. Not just the repower being certified. Poor poor guy

***Warning*** Gunna take a looonnnng time.

I may not even succeed, bizarrely I'm not too fussed about failing, if you don't have a go, how would you ever know

Beats sitting in front of the tv at night
