    Loud noises!!!

    im too excited to just keep this contained to my project thread

    i drove the v8 today!!!!



    now for the excuses - its a stiff twin plate thats going to take some getting used too so excuse the stall and i dont have a shifter for my r154 so using a nissan one plonked in the hole and it doesnt work very well, hence the epically long gear changes
