While adjusting I realized I would be changing into 6th (manual at 240). That sucks. Really need to stay in 5th. Need to ditch the 3.77 and go 2.73/ 2.92. Wonder if its worth it??? May look into it. Cant let Todd beat me.. Edited 24/09/16 06:37 AM by arronm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the clutch and have hurst/malwood shifter. But runs into a bit of a wall in 6th. 1000m isnt a long distance. The speed isnt the problem, its getting there quickly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get used to it. In practical but awesome for what its intended for.fark the cruise gear make it an actual gear, maybe change first as well dunno 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'If a breather system discharges to atmosphere, vehicles are to be fitted with a catch can. - Vehicles with a 2000cc capacity or below to be of a 2 litre variety and vehicles with a 2001cc capacity or above to be of a 3 litre variety'. 3 Litre seems to be a very large catch can!

Do you have scope to plumb your cans back in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that's the easiest solution I think. as you say a 3 litre can is a decent piece of real estate. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
