  2. Good work...

    I've seen the exhausts come from a tee piece then into boxes and exiting in front of the rear wheels..
     
  3. Yeah I've seen a couple like that. I want me to look standard as possible. So last night I bought a T25 back box and a 90 degree bend. This exhaust should cost me less than 50 quid

  4. It goes forwards and backwards with hydraulic clutch and 5 speed box.

    The opposite of yours by the sounds of it!
    Feels just right. Biting point is if anything higher than before, but definitely not heavy.

  10. Bus is n the road and running, I still need to iron out the kinks with the cooling but that should be sorted today. Exhaust is fine but looks dodgy as hell

    Gear change is getting there but I want a new one

  17. Yes defo mate, got loads of little tips now.it will be worth you coming over and having a damn good look and I can spout off everything I have learnt from doing this.

    Coolant is just about getting it plumbed in right. Still not convinced.

  19. Air locks in the rad and pipes can be an issue...
     
  20. Yep, new stat fitted tonight and initial bleed done. Will get the vac tool on it tomorrow to get it really good hopefully.
