after waking up this morning to find that some of my roof was sitting on and around my lovely Toyota Hilux Invincible (not that chuffin' invincible), John Eales just rang to say that my engine is almost finished! All it needed internally was new valve guides......happy days smile Its not been on the dyno yet but we are expecting a good 460 to 500bhp. Car weighs about 2 tonnes, so well within the P/W for class B wink

oh, every bloody panel on the Hilux is scratched and dented and a smashed window.....bummer frown

Dave - guess 2 tonnes includes you sitting in it?!?
Thank goodness there'll be scrutineers this year - Class B looks too hot for me!
