Bristol was a good show for me personally especially with Creationblue organising an area for us to campout by the entrance Ozzie selling his parts from his life collection. Well worth a visit in 2025. I didn’t enjoy DATC so much this year and one to fester over in 2025. My best show was skeg by...

I take a look and re-order some. You’re right on slightly oversized.

I did my lines when I bought the bus but now the engine out I have replaced fuel tank hose that was 6mm I used with correct fuel hose clips.

More progress today by Abel. it pretty much a long block ready for the tinware. That’s currently at the powder coaters being coloured and getting the new heat exchangers done as well for good protection. Advised should be ready next week so hopefully I collect Friday the 1st November 🤞🏻 will do...

Really starting to take shape on my new engine build. Work being done by Afonso Motors.

Well YellowBay69 havnt got one as yet so need to come up with something might use my old Xbox user name 😆 “fearsomegabs” Plan for the rig is to keep in contact when we are in a convoy with my fellow earlybay gang.

Right guys went for the Thunderpole T800 though Creationblue and did the install today. Just need to give it a test. Also need to find a way to run the antenna on a tintop roof as don’t want to have the coaxial cable coming through door aperture.

I gone same way with Chinese diesel heater 4kw as 2kw was hard to get. Added a tank inside my kitchen cupboard “since upgraded to stainless steal version” no diesel smells at all. heater in the lower cupboard space as well. I used a turret plate as felt it helped keep things safe. Been running...

He started work midweek and said it should be finished end of the month as he just working full time on it. Tinware goes to powder coating next week so really hoping it is ready in time. Fingers crossed 🤞 all goes to plan.

I like the fact it runs to 6rpm Sparkywig and looks great with the style of a classic Alfa. I check out some stuff on eBay see if I can find something similar.

I reckon you should get all the other connected Ozzie ref the oil temp and pressure. Not a big job with winter on its way.

Just out of interest what tachometer are people using in there buses. Looking at a top dash tachometer that rpm to 6000. What about. Cheers Gabs…

That’s a cheap buy!

Good to know Paulcalf and thanks for the info in your feedback.

Fallingoffalot, what sort of cost If you don’t mind me asking. Not desperate on a new box so a plan may be end of next year until I take a look.

Did you just buy the box or go for an install as well Ben72Bay. I have looked as some flier on vw air-cooled as would want an exchange unit as don’t want my bus of the road to long and having a ramp to get it out and in.

Thanks K@rlos. Where is he located ? Another name is John walklett which someone mentioned on the late bay forum.

I will look at a box next year but will be interesting to see how it performs on a standard stock box and agree going from 40hp to around 90 is a big step so hopefully see the gains. Hoping my ICT 34 keep it balanced enough but will be re-jetted to accommodate the changes. Also asked for the new...

Whilst I’m now waiting for my engine build to take place decided to add all my wiring for VDO gauges in the engine bay and felt tape the existing loom to tidy it up but still some more to finish. Removed old filter tray and Painted the engine bay so all nice and fresh again with a good seam...

That’s ok Ozzie bit big for top bunk. To cold for tents as well so be next year now for me. Appreciate the offer though.
