mrbeige 0 Posted April 14, 2005 O i c! Well, I need to get my arches rolled first, before I put them all on, so I'm getting a friend of min to make the tool to do it, using some drawings that were posted on here a while ago.....8) Once I've done that, you'll see some pics up here! Just wetting your appetite like!! ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrbeige 0 Posted April 21, 2005 Some pics as it stands before I put the Borbet A's on (just washed as well!!) 8) The Senakas that are on it a corroded to buggery, what do I do with them? Get them professionally refurbed, or do I sand them down and paint them? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chris VR6nos 0 Posted April 22, 2005 I hate to say this but someone remarked recently about putting some real pictures up of propper modding and not gatting a response then commenting that a lot of the people on here are better placed on a Max-Power forum and they'd get a better response if they'd have posted pictures of a chromed radiator cap! I disagreed and supported the folk on here. The pic by mrbeige was a critical mod which has bog all to do with shiny bits and is the core and essence of modding, doing the hard work and work that makes a difference using skill, not sh1t that twinkles in the sun and does p1ss all for anything. The above posts have just got my goat since i was arguing the opposite just lastnight! Good one mrbeige! keep stuck in, that's the stuff modding's made of!!!!!!!!

mrbeige 0 Posted April 22, 2005 Cheers Chris VR6nos, I'll post some other pics up of the cylinder head porting, when I borrow my Dad's Canon Ixus camera, which is better than the one used originally. Going to post some pics of the port match of inlet manifold too, and possibly pics of the arch rolling in progress that I hope to do next week at some point Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GIXXERUK 0 Posted April 22, 2005 Chris VR6nos, i can see what you're saying chris but i reckon theres room for both, pics and description of how to do your timing chains or the best valve seals , bushes etc but also what wheels, tyres , polish etc you use now , about that chrome radiator cap, have you got pics :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrbeige 0 Posted April 28, 2005 There on! Unfortunately picture was taken with a camera phone Also the arch rolling in progress...(still cracked my bloody paint!!!) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
