Not bad at all, its deffo smoother and fuel is going fine, bit early to tell but I dont change gear under 3k revs :lol:

but the journey has less gear changes so that makes up for it, I would say roughly a very slight improvement if anything but a heck of a lot quieter.

Fitted Dave's (dt1968) gearbox, props, loom , alternator, intercooler, oil cooler, rad etc etc etc .

Gearbox went on surprisingly well. Precision, not brute force is deffo the way to go. After a good few hours we filled up it's fluids and turned the key. Success!!!

No knocking, sweet as a nut all bled through , massive result !!

Utterly knackered but a great day
