tim Posted May 9, 2007 Report Posted May 9, 2007 2.3 Jondel Duratec 299.99r BHP through a 5speed Tractive sequential to an Atlas axle on Proflex coilovers F&R. Still on 13" wheels but thats up for discussion after yesterday, a very 21st century thing a "Lata Dogger" showed he'd been using 8968rpm at one point.Must mention Kev Theaker of Ralloy who has had so much input in to getting Edith up and running, it soon focused his concentration when running her around bedding in he found you could spin the wheels in 5th ! She was just a prepared(not painted) shell when Steve sold Elsie 3months ago and I know he's burnt a lot of midnight oil since then. Take a good look around her on the Reivers if you get the chance. There were only 2 small issues yesterday,once sorted it was tyres and fuel,adjust ride heights/damper settings after she settled in. Not bad straight out of the box and Steves first ever drive, the only time he sat in previously was for the seat fitting. Steve was concerned because the Tractor has a sequential box where the gear lever is pushed forward to change up so he had to remember he wasn't driving that..!!!!!!!!!
