Spoke to Andi at Newark, never thought to ask - any chance you'd have the time to fit a BBK throttle body and plenum to my V8. It's a used one, may have to source a couple of missing screws and gaskets before though.
No probs if it's a bit much, still attending either way. Cheers Jim |

Thanks Andy, was going to print off a how to but I guess you won't need it lol. Checked again and only seem to be short two screws from what should be in the kit, I'm assuming that the plenum gasket can be reused.
Cheers see you on the 12th. Jim |

1. He did not charge any extra 2. It was acurate to the mm 3. It had to be fitted accurate to the mm so it did not catch on the screen as it tilts, as I only allowed 1.5mm between the side of the screen and the trim. As you can see, you only get one go, and I got it dead centre Best thing would be to try my surround and order the walnut trim surround the same size if the fit is the same. |

Hi Mind if I come along and have a look, I have been interested in one of these units for a while now and would love to see one in the metal, plus the chance to meet some of you guys.
Cheers George |

I have found the email from Simon from when I bought mine, and copied it below. Hi Stephen No problem Just to double check, you need piece No 1 with just the sides (38 mm) and the bottom I have attached a schematic of your kit as it will look. PM me your email address and I will send you the schematic above Simon sent me. What you need to do is attach it to an email to him, tell him you want item 1 you made for Stephen from the club, then he will know exactly what you want, but you need the sides of part 1 to be 35mm and the bottom. I have been watching trebors thread closely, you may want to wait for Simons latest schematic, PS Some ICE units need removal tools, if you can remove your ICE unit ready that would help Last edited by Devilish; 18th January 2011 at 03:33.. |

Hoefully everything will be sorted with my insurance and i will have my new car on the road, it would be great if you could cast your expert eyes over it and see if anything needs urgent attention. No problem if you are too busy will still try to be there.
I will even bake some home made cakes if need be Paul Last edited by Richy; 18th January 2011 at 13:41.. Reason: forgot to add |
