Yippee my money has just come through, so I've got another £5k to throw at the 2a bearing in mind I owe money out for buying the new galv bulkhead the other week and I also need to spend another £1,200ish to have the g/box and tranny box refurbished / uprated and the rest is for other bits I need for the 2a so I need to start making a new parts list for everything else I need to get
