Well the fuel seams to be cleaning up fine, ten now wears a temp gauge with proud and im using it every day for work, still gotta wire up fan and raise and stiffen rear and I will try and sort some videos of it doing what it does best, power :-) shocks everyone. May weld the diff up as i cant really get traction and if it goes pop it will be getting a different axle

Well ive burnt off £60 of fuel and all is going well, only a couple of bits in the filter now so we are sorted, still flying along and if im sensable can get decent mpg. Just waiting on some taller wheels now a mate is breaking some mgfs so either alloys or 2 spares. Then we will see how the axle holds out, im going to add some coil springs between the leafs and chassis to stop the squat and im thinking of putting a bar from the top of the diff housing to the body to stop axle wrap

Managed to get a pair of shafts and a diff out a 54 8 so its now on a 4.87:1 but it doesnt seem to have made much differents, shes all up and running again altho the prop damaged the back of the box where the linkage slides so 1st is tight at the moment and the box is now whining now, im hoping that when the prop came out it moved the box out of alignment and I can cure it just by undoing the bellhousing bolts and pressing the clutch, if not the next thing is to mod the spare box and swap it over
