they are surprisingly good heavy object movers and yes that mower is not any ordinary mower, its specially designed for drag racing with a side of zombie mowing

well as some of you might know my car had an annoying misfire/ cough when planting it at low revs, today i removed the intake manifold and installed a new manifold to head gasket (acl) and p****d that gasket goo off and put a genuine ford steel shim gasket back in the plenum to manifold and it fixed it , the car now revs up awsome, as i was taking off i did what i normally had to to stop it stalling when taking off,, quickley jab the accelerator to get the revs up without coughing , instead i kinda went sideways across the grass and sideways for about 5 meters on the road !!! FK YES!@!! LOVES IT

im not going over 3800rpm, well trying not too, seems to be bedded in pretty well, 200km on the clock so far :D exhaust's fixed so sounds awesome now

im not having any problems so far,

when i get into the higher rev ranges there doesant seem to be any vibration at all, doesant make any weird noises just goes like a rocket, there is one hla that i can hear is screwed apart from that its good

ive made a big choice in the last few days, i will not be turboing the 6 anymore, it will be used as a a-b,, instead i will start building a V8, of which unspeakable power will be done at n/a

so i guess i will be selling all my turbo parts, this includes, waste gate, steam-pipe manifold, everything thats turbo related for money to purchase v8 block
