Old Fart, the VT has 450,000 K's on the clock and is now in semi retirement. Basically used to transport models to an from the field (10 minutes) and not much else. It has so little real use that I have to charge the battery up about once every 6 weeks or so or take it for a real drive. The State champs were not good to me but at least I am back into "serious competition" and along with my "old mate" we are once again a serious team to contend with. BTB did you know if you put the fuel line check valve in the wrong way you get serious flooding problems (in the crank case) in YS's. It is enough to make a guy seriously look at "real go fast mods" to Saitos. On good looking cars of course the VT Commodore, the Datsun 240s, Nissan 300Z (series 2, bubble) and the Nissan 370z and for nostalgia the TR3 and early 911's. Enough off to the shed for me and start looking at ceramics and Saito 65, 62, and 56 engines. Catch Ya.
