Re: VG30 z31 conversion info

The VG conversion is under way again after a few weeks off. I was hoping to pull a little knowledge from those that have been here before.

Almost time to enjoy the fruits of all that hard work. You will really enjoy being able to stand up working under that lift and get the most out of that space. Way to go mate!

Re: Fun with needles

I also crewed for a friend who ran a F-prod spitfire and we would play around a lot with the emory cloth, drill, and checking plugs back in the late 70's and early 80's. The ability to ...
