Cheers Rhinoman will take a look at Auszookers .
Helens truck is a naturally aspirated 1905 xud pug motor but I agree with you . Her exhaust is straight through stainless big bore through to a single stainless cherrybomb and we hope it does the trick .

Hi Dan , just for the record , I haven't tried the Maxxis tyres in anger yet as still getting round to painting the rims etc and moving house etc but the type is At 771 and can be found on the tyresdirect website , they are pretty aggressive for an At and most importantly about £20 cheaper each deli...

Got all the bits and motor factor supplied me 5 litre of red OAT coolant where previously it had green in . Will the red be ok ? I did a...

Oh forgot to mention , the exhaust was fabricated by the guys at TFS racing next door to precision autos , they more commonly work on monster drift cars , and very trick subarus and they took a number of attempts to get the angles right under the engine to preclude contact with the front axle during...

Just a bit of an update , on were we are having the truck engineered . sadly got some bad news yesterday , as the brilliant guy doing a major re engineering on Helens truck found that the recently installed low mileage XUd motor appears to have either done its cylinder head gasket or cracked its hea...

That's great news .Responding is great fun , particularly incidents such as the Isle of white festival . but more seriously its very important when essential services just cant get about .
