well she drives with a few daft problems ..
also has no PAS or EPAS steering is too heavy but thats getting sorted over the weekend will be putting the PAS from the donor car onto it
1 of the problems is it limits at 5000 revs what could this be ?
its got no air filter on atm ,
the straight through will be coming off and getting replaced with CAT & standard centre box car is too loud for what i want ears are ringing from driving it..
will get some pics tomorrow going to clean it out and get all the interior back in it only got the drivers seat in it
