Paging @Seedy Al hes got all the V engine knowledge or even @Mourning Cupcake to get his knowledge posted

Adapt the levelers with a bolt on them so you can use a battery drill and a socket for speedy leveling

Theres a guy I see commuting a burgman thing most mornings, hes always across the intersection when the lights go green before the cars have even moved

Strip it down when you get it cause qc is average and so is sealing especially if using it in a marine environment plus they use sfa grease in the gearbox so pack it full of grease and goop it back up with silicone

Dual batteries was a cold weather option or something Had a surf with dual batteries running 12v Was great for parties in the wops could run the stereo all night without going flat

It must be a corolla thing cause my zze122 is the same Anything over half a tank the needle barely moves giving me a sense of max ecom on pertol Get to half tank and can almost see the needle moving

100% make up a bash plate, even a thick alloy one that will grind itself away instead of the gearbox. Had similar clearance issues with my townace and it had a alloy bash plate that I has a cardboard template stashed away for. Was easy to whip up a new one from a sheet of scrap when it got a bit thin Also was the box from a floor shift morse cable linkage van? Id say you need to do some fettling to the adjusters to get the column linkages talking to the box properly or if the swap with the gearbox mount setup has dropped the box down a few mm that can be enough to throw everything out of whack as I found when my gearbox mount collapsed

Lexobarge IS220D sounds like a lush option but they are thin on the ground in NZ

Suggestions on late model deez manuals that wont freak out when it has a "speedo fault" By late model I mean anything post 2000 so it gets yearly wofs

7 months(ish) til this years gravel eating adventure Time to build some froth

Yes please @Stu

Anything in the book about the boats they made?

Signed up for wombling and to see if they have any info on my liteweight 12ft tinny, I knew about the caravans but didnt know they had a foray into boat building

I vividly remember waiting in line for dinner at maybe Coro nats and the line could see into a resident camp dwellers caravan where something on TV at the point showed a P76 and the collection of people in line went "ITS A LEYLAND P76!" much to the confusion of the caravan dweller

Im glad a P76 has finally surfaced on OS as a project One of the foundation cars of OS lore that is often spoken about but nobody actually wants

Pining for vids of doorts. G52 and tiny wheels is going to make it hit it the limiter in 1st reeeealll fast

Im going to be at my lockup tomorrow arvo so will look at the plumbing of the lines on my 1GGZE and report back

Sounds legit to me

Radiator from a deez lite/townace would do the job. My 3SGE townace was running the factory 2C-T radiator and it worked perfect

Vid of it wrapped up and idling away choofing at the wrapping paper please

Cheap 1L bottle of degreaser mixed 50/50 with water for a soak and scrub followed by running neat degreaser in the ultrasonic cleaner. Edit: something like this will be fine https://www.supercheapauto.co.nz/p/sca-sca-degreaser-concentrate---2.5-litre/519105.html#q=degreaser&lang=en_NZ
