It's not raining so I went for a drive, fuel gauge still stuck so I threw some more super unleaded in. Nice steady bumble about the area to bed her in and shake down. It's taking some getting used to.
I did a standing start on the bypass. 60 came and went before I knew it!

Any confessions to the top speed reached on said "bumble"... You deserve all the fun after the hours of work and waiting... Well done.

Erm.. let's just say a motorway policeman would not be happy about the speed achieved

It's actually pretty stable under power. Bit bouncy on rough roads though, the coilovers are rock solidThe back end must be pretty lively, hardly any weight there and all that power and torque on tap must make it interesting
It should be very controlled on a smooth road. Sounds like the springs are too hard, i can't remember what poundage they were, but it should be written on them.

There's still a fair bit of weight to go in yet. Will be fine

Took the tank out. Waxoiled around where it fits. Can't figure out how or why the float stuck so I added a bit of weight to it. I tested the buoyancy in my quench bucket. Still floats so it's going back in tomorrow when the waxoil on the chassis area has dried.

You know what... it might have done.
You will need to make sure that leaving the door ajar does suck air out and not draw air in. When I have driven a car with the tailgate ajar it has sucked exhaust fumes in. However, the position of your exhaust pipes may prevent this.

Good point but the front windows will be open or I will use the Swamp cooler.
