I let out a little sex wee just looking at that engine God help me if he posts a vid lol That exhaust is pure art
cheers for the comments, no more sex wee though !! Took a vid, but had to use my old camera and the quality is not that good. Still about a 100mb though. I could put it up on here if that is ok. If not here is link to my buses facebook page. http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Mickey-Blue/170453863056483?sk=wall&filter=1
Just watched the facebook vid, thats a very very very nice, bet you cant wait to get it in the bus and have a blast round.
Engine in and took out for a quick test drive on Friday. What a difference a bigger engine and taller gearbox make. It just purred along and when you put your foot down it just immediately picked up speed. Even roundabouts were easier to just stay in 3rd gear, rather than come back down to 2nd or even 1st like I had to before. Still waiting for my CSP exhaust to turn up, so it has a bugpack one on it for now, just so that we can drive it. Also, still waiting for my oil temp gauge as well. Then I just need to lower the back a bit, re-tint my back window and get rid of the stupid sticker it has, and then I think it is done....................for now !! Few pics and a video if it will load. Quality not that good, as I need a new camera. Something else to add to the list !! VW Campervan Mickey Blue 1914 engine 1st Test Run
Bus back at home now and doing its 500 mile run in, before going back for a service and change of exhaust. First impressions are unreal. Just driving about town is so much easier due to all that new torque. Few more pics. Engine Engine close up of left side. Engine close up of right side. Fireflex Extinguisher setup. Temporary Exhaust (bug Pack...Not to keen on this !!) Attempt to photograph my glitter roof. Front Pic Side Pic
