Paradoxx Colossal Member Member 5,049 Member For: 20y 9m 5d Gender: Male Location: Perth, WA Posted 01/11/06 06:41 AM Share Posted 01/11/06 06:41 AM very interesting re the bottom end for 2500... I think a lot of people can stop stressing out about mods to their engines now! Lets see... short motor, 6sp manual and twin plate clutch might be on the cards depending on the lifespan of my car...
