Beware! This is exactly how the Large Hadron Collider started!

looks awesome but that much power and undiluted awsomeness could probably bring an end to life on the surface of the planet.

If you put your foot down, be very carefull. The torque could and will stop the rotation of the earth.

Then we'd all fall down, or float off.

Or explode.

Is that an SS Autochrome / XS Power manifold? If so, I'd have it re-welded / reinforced.

I wonder where that axle came from

I spent my weekend freezing my arse off making that happen, but left before you got there.

cheers

Axle is from suterman.On way back I was following yellow LHD GT fistailing...OOOHHH!! Manifolds from Finland, don't know who made it..
I thought XS Power one didn't fit 16v??

Aye, I was there when he spoke to you on the phone earlier in the day. That was a miserable time weather-wise, but the job got done. Ah, that's Nick's yellow 242GT (with a B23ET fitted). First UK Tbrick to run a 13 second 1/4 mile!

Proturbo are based in Finland, so it's likely one of theirs. They're good quality. Their 16v ones look a bit like SS Autocrap ones, so that's probably the source of my confusion.

cheers
