Manual tensioner on the 172 cup, you should be able to turn the belt to 90 degrees on its longest run with two fingers if that makes sense

71' C10's were rated at 240hp ( when new ) so should be fine It'll be near the limit for full throttle pulls for prolonged periods but I don't think it'll be an issue as thats probably not what's it's going to be used for, the fuel tank is behind the bench seat back and pretty much at the same...

We're impressed how nice it is overall, obviously the 3 mile range it has before having to have a siesta is a bit limiting but it'll get sorted

They claim tacho exemption so only allowed to work within 50km of their base, so could basically move it 100km max if they collected 50km south and travelled 50km north of base Edit: it's 100km of base, not done that stuff for a few years and my memory is getting rid of all the useless info

Don't let it taint the purchase, It'll all be sorted soon and you'll get a bit of summer out of it.

Not for long How deep do you want to be in to that Jim, I reckon there's another £3k needed on that

i think that kit was £340 last time I bought one, what are the specialists charging fitted, £750 - 850 ?

If I was looking, I'd want it without the belts done as I'd do them myself, but I'm probably in the minority of buyers. Out of interest what's the going rate for belts, dephaser, water pump, aux belt now ?
