Haha it's a BF, and so a B-series coil-cover it has to be.

It's actually in the boot mate, with a non-return valve directly behind each wiper jet.

Didn't want to fit an FG coil-cover to a BF motor, I personally think the B series covers look better.

Nothing much really to report, apart from throwing on a set of Toyo Proxes T1 Sports ...as traction on the ol' Roadstones was becoming an issue, lol.

All still going great :grin:

Here's a couple of vids I threw up on YouTube this weekend ...pretty much sums up the car really ;)

WALK AROUND THE CAR

Cheers :wink:

It used to cackle more than drone, lol, so I had a 12" straight-thru oval muffler shoe-horned in just before the tip ...quietened & smoothed her down dramatically :wink:
