  1. Mate and I walked 11 miles each spraying with 20 litre knapsack. That was a fairly hard day. Boss was with us , but declined work the next day !
  2. That's a shrewd business move I suppose..
  3. Pretty sure the Brit part solid flywheel is made by Rakeway . Rakeway make clutches for road , race and rally.
  4. And real aircraft , mostly , a real classic.
  5. Just started ,so I thought I would watch it again. Last time we were warned there were naughty words . Think it was the dogs name .
  6. Will wager they have a good long record....
  7. Why can't we lock these people up and keep them there
  8. Does it make much difference
  9. Rakeway do a heavy duty clutch and solid flywheel.
  10. Lord knows I have tried..
  11. I don't mind them eating them if there is an abundant supply.
  12. I presume they are short stopping . Definately not as common as they used to be . Alegedly , the seeds they like are in short supply.
  13. Heard the first Turtle dove of the year today in the yard. Purring away not far from me.
  14. Muckn fuddle graft .
  15. What sort of money and power ?
  16. Thank you
  17. Leaking diesel into the oil from number 1 cylinder. A lot too.
  18. So what sort of money is one of these kits? New Td5 cylinder der head is around £1000
  19. If you can wait until next spring , I will come and do them for you. I do a bit of freelance grafting /budding. We can make them look very pretty.
  20. I do like the Td5 , it is a good engine and it has a little red box attached to the ecu , it was there when I bought it. Turner do a Spanish head without the head problems , so I will likely get that rather than a Boyled head. I do a bit of heavy towing and it is good at that ,a V8 conversion would cost as much too . I will keep you informed of progress. Cheers.
  21. TD5 has cracked head ,so I am going through the options ,plus a V8 sounds rather nice.
  22. You could always graft them with somethings nicer.
  23. My 560 you did has really improved. I would like a 395 with the works.
  24. Anything that will fit reasonably easily and doesn't get cracked heads.
  25. My Grandad believed it all. He used to be jumping out of his seat swearing at all the swines.
