    My valver/172 project

    i think so :o exhaust still blows - but the engine seems minto just taken it for a drive, and foooooook me its quick! no PAS, so the steering is really agricultural - making the drive interesting with the light foot controls and heavy steering, but when my pipes arrive that should be solved :)

    Steering racks

    radiator fan? steering? aux set up? battery tray if you're going to use the 172 box & mounts (do you have ABS?) keeping the oil pressure gauges? I think between us, we have most of the issues nicely sorted :) what ecu have you got? (numbers?) oh, and good luck! :D

    My valver/172 project
