Come home from work to a nice little care package sitting on the front porch. Cheers Jaysen!
Heads straight into the boot of the boat and down to the machinists. This is where the grand plan turned into a pile of poo nuggets................. This weekend is a long weekend aint it! The machinist is taking off at lunch time tomorrow to his holiday place down the coast for 3 days of drinking beer and knowing nothing about work. The problem is there are 4 engines in the que in front of my work. So unfortunately the heads wont be ready in time to have it all put together before next weekend............  Oh well never to mind. We all tried our best. Luckily I found out about the machinist being off BEFORE I pulled the car apart..............

Nah Ash the reaon there was no updates was because well because there was no updates! It went off to the dyno day totally as it was last update. Get it done soon.................
It did pretty well but actually for what it is. 139.1kw. It is a lot more then I expected to be honest. It can only improve. I took the dyno flanno cup by a blonde pubic hair. There was nothing in it but so I have to get a cracking before Phill sneaks up behind me and claims it back. Im not too worried but to be honest. Everyone knows Phill will sell his car before the next dyno day anyway.............

That EA of Phills went pretty bloody good I have to tell you.

You forgot the K&N stickers x 2 Phill. Thats where the power has come from.
Well I was listening to a CD the other night at work and Whole Lotta Rosie come on by AC/DC. I figured seeing as though the song is about a sheila who is big , fat and ugly but a lot of fun , the name was fitting for the boat. So it has sorta been christened the S.S Rosie. Its a little more personal then the boat. Changed the heads today for the GT40P's. Still have to fit the manifold and finish everything off. Hope to have it back up and running Monday. There is a couple of pics but they are on someones iphone , so he can put them up later.

Nah didnt do the cam at this point in time Phill.
There are a couple of different ideas kicking around so Im thinking about trying them. Had a couple of unexpected costs come up doing the change over so wasnt really cashed up to get a new chain , regas the air con etc.
