What size of fuel lines did you guys use if you don't mind me asking?

Mine will soon be turbo'd but the dci 80 ratios for track use would be too long imho. I'm not sure what the ratios are but I would imagine they are 35-40% longer than the 172's ratios which would not be good even in a turbo car. The performance increase of the turbo would be lost by the leggy...

Oil mist through the breather.

Surely the ratios in the dci 80 bow would be all wrong. 1st gear would give you about 45-50mph, 2nd about 90mph and so on.

Checked with John Harris today and he is currently offering 10%.

Cool, cheers.

What is the CS discount anyway?

Basic stuff as above. If you've not got them take it to a garage.

Oh, thanks for that. Was going to fit it this weekend. I'll hold off and get some of this stuff then. Cheers

I got some glass fibre backed aluminium material for mine as it says it can handle 500deg contact temp and 1000deg radiant temp. Why is this stuff better or is it only the asthetics that are better? For £20+vat I may have to get some anyway.

Lol, got you! :o

Different length? As the pic shows the centre carrier.

Thanks again Danny! Just one more question, what about a non cup 182, do they use the same shaft and would they fit? I think the shaft might be from a non cup 182.

Is there any difference between a cup packed FF 182 and a 182 cup? Been offered a shaft with the carrier and it looks like it will do the job of clearing my oil return to the sump but not sure if there is any difference in length or anything else that stops it fitting straight on my 172 cup...

Get a pry bar or a large screw driver in the gap and try and lever them apart. It'll be the splines of the output shaft seized on the clutch so wiggling, shaking and prying will work if done with some swearing. Make sure all bolts and nuts are off.

Piston 4 as in the opposite end of the block to the air filter? How can you see the piston, have you stripped the head off?

probably weighed about 200kg lighter than you! Sounds like you're having a blast with the car which is the main thing.

Looking good Dave! So much choice of track cars with you. Lucky B!:rasp:

Need to get myself a copy but nowhere sells it up here! :mad:

Yeah, got it and thanks again. Just what I need!

What cheaper fuel? Surely the performance gain for the price difference is worth it? It's only about 5p a litre dearer for tesco 99.

Thanks Jay, just what I needed. Cheers

Very good power, but why 95ron? Love the build guys. Any more pics of your fuel setup?

Agreed, I went for kw v2's but b14's or AST's would be the only others for me.

Cheers Jay!

Any more pics?

Why was the 172 cup different? But thanks again mate!
