Hi, Yes, it was great meeting all you guys. Thanks for the "T" Toby. No sweat about the whiskey & snacks, the least we could have done...it's known as Durban hospitality. You're welcome.
On behalf of my Family and myself, I would also like to wish all our readers a very safe festive season, and a special wish for those broken down and unwell SX's a speedy get well soon.

Yes, Toby where are the pics? By the way I eventually finished the re-assembly yesterday evening. All went well, including getting new hoses made for the turbo, both oil supply and water supply/return (thanks Vlade for the advice). I started her up (first time) and she was very noisy for about 5 minutes (due to the squeezed-out lifters). After leaving her idling for a bit she quietened down completely and purred like a pussy cat. Took her for a quick spin in the dark and she seems quite happy. Will set the timing and TP sensor, idle sensor, and idle speed this morning. Thanks again to all concerned.

Be planning a trip soon up to the BIG CITY. Hopefully arrange something to have my piggy-back wired up properly and fly back down. Sorry buddy, would really like to come up there for good (was there before for 4 years). Unfortunately the sea (and my mum/dad) has a hold on me and the pull of the rand is less than the pull of the sea.
