[Elite Pete]

Well done Pete, a good days work mate Did you remember to check for a squirter by chance :-/

They had already gone, sorry

[Elite Pete]

With help from Timbuk, (cheers Doug) we managed to get the old duff gearbox out and the new gearbox in with no dramas, just got to refit the downpipes then do the cam cover gaskets and clean the breathers and thats project two sorted

[Elite Pete]

Ive decided to call it a day (its persisting down) but ive got the cam cover gaskets done and the breathers cleaned out and rebuilt as far as the plenum, ive also drilled the two broken bolts from the exhaust that snapped, so next weekend should see the Elite back on the road

I woke this morning feeling like I had been 10 rounds with Tyson just shows im very out of condition and getting a bit long in the tooth for rolling around on the floor, but after a nice soak in the bath a cool beer and a weeks rest I should be fighting fit again (yeah right)

I was well impressed before, I thought the wife had taken up break dancing but it turned out to be the slippy drive

I didn't know you were so into your mechanicals Pete

[PaulW]

Certainly does look different now to how it did last time I saw it!

I like your multi-colored path though - brings back memories of my old 8v rebuild days  

Will have to see what its like when you've got it all done

Took us hours to get that pattern on the drive

Ive done a bit over the years, but the ever expanding waistline, work and house extension have slowed me down a bit
