Looking good smile

Do you know what type of DV you need? Just I have a baily one you could lend until you get your own, but I think its a single piston type

It already has a DV, but of the wrong type so it effects the idle on the engine and makes it stall at times

Come round some time and i'll dig it out and we'll try it. Failing that I'll find something to blank it off so you can have it chatter for abit until you source one <--- Nice sounding and wont stall on you, your not running silly PSI so it wont damage a thing

FRONT AND BACK STRUT BRACES ARE BOTH IN NOW.

Front one took alittle messing about had to cut alittle bit of the bonnet skin away to make it sit proper.

Rear one was straight forward and took ten mins.

Had a go at the lazy eye kit but not to sure how to do it i have the instructions but carnt seem to work it out right.

Next is the engine and my mate has given me a great quote for the paint which should look good but its engine work 1st.

DV looks like a diaphram one to me confused , could be wrong though.

DV vac feed can be from any pressure source after the throttle butterfly smile
