I think a email tune so it will start and a rev limiter so you can check for leaks take it for a drive shake it down put some kays on everything is a mint idea. Hes probably going to end up stuffing around with sh*t like actuator preload etc... You may aswell check over and rectify anything you can yourself before it even gets there save him the time and frustration...Will quickly knock the wind out of his sail if he has to spend heaps of time on stupid little things that could have been sorted before it arrived. You do such a great jov there probably wont be much but its worth a shake down imo 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88393-327-rwkw-760nm-xt-one-tonne-ute-was-a-v8/page/137/#findComment-1619110 Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do such a great jov there probably wont be much but its worth a shake down imoyes I will get a save tune done barnz that is a great idea lol. But that doesn't help me at all as I want the yella terra flex plate doweled and whatever they do to keep it from coming loose . Also I have this latest model gearbox that has no gears ,that does not even need oil . I am also not going to use a cat as that is to restrictive for my set up ,rather have it come straight out of the dump pipe . Yes I am not able to drive it there itscgot to get there on the back of a tow truck and as I asked jamie to finnish fitting the flex plate and box . Then they can also fit the rest of the exhoust as a standard jouner will not fit as the cat has not been welded to any flanges at all .they do not only tune cars they work on them as well. One thing I will refuse to fit is the gearbox as that is a carnt under the car to do , no thanks it was hard enough to fit the gutted gox Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88393-327-rwkw-760nm-xt-one-tonne-ute-was-a-v8/page/137/#findComment-1619157 Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he knew that also . 4 hrs and the box is in .on a hoist it is no problem at all .then the exhoust another 3 hrs max .yes that's a days work and all done . For me to do the exhoust I would have to trailer it to a shop first then get it welded . Rather get jamie to do that instead .

The exhoust could not be much for him to do .he did say last time he would be able to weld one up with no problems . I know I could do the exhoust but why do it if somone can weld it in place there as it moves when you weld it when its not bolted up .I think I have done enough on the ute and itsctime for professionals to do the last bit of it . Thanks for your help barnz but I also got to look after my back as I have a permanent injury that I rather not make worse . That could put me of work for a long time .rather not risk that as that could meen the end for me . The injury I have could paralyze me from waste down . I sustained the injury at work about 10 years back and work cover did nothing .

Gives me some time to sort everything out before I take it to him in 2017 . 4 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88393-327-rwkw-760nm-xt-one-tonne-ute-was-a-v8/page/137/#findComment-1619417 Share on other sites More sharing options...
