Which Labour weekend are we talking 2014 or 2015?.... :lol:


Stop poking me with that stick, I know I have to get your deadening fitted..clean out the car, degrease / wipe down with mineral cleaner, spray bomb it all so it looks smick... then I will think about coming up to apply it for you!

I think it would be better to do an external fuel pump and under car surge tank than welding your tank up. Pretty much just do what Kitch did on his.

A low pressure lift pump, to an external surge tank, with a high pressure (efi ) fuel pump is tons easier. only downside is, external efi pumps tend to be a bit noisier.
