Re: long slow gq project
Stripped down to a bare block, found some big bits of metal in the sump now to track down where they have come from. One bit was cylinder twos piston skirt oil squirter. not sure what has caused that to break off. Let the investigation begin.

will look in to cert issues now though. cheers

Re: rubber suspension bushes
Yeah sorry. Dumb questions on my part. I should have re-read your first post. A MWB conversion is fairly drastic. People push the rear axle back 300 mm (ish) to make them climb better and be more stable at speed. I assumed you were doing something like this an hence were making new trailing arms. a...
