quick update on my van. fitted my bob cams and vectra injecters today. :D only problem i had was that the first time i took it for a spin it was not that good and lumpy as anything lowdown, :( so had to have it apart again. turned out it was a tooth out on the timing. so sorted that put it back together and went for another spin. and oh my god it shiffed :D :D :D well happy with that. at first in low down revs it was splutering. seems to be getting better the more i fiddle the the air screw on the throttle body. think it could be running to rich low down and just right at the top now but will sort that. also put my side door window in and back door windows in to and i have some 17" wheels coming soon. so when i fit them and fix my front bumper will post some pics. forgot to mention the propshaft problem i had turned out that the prop was bent. had it on the balance machine and it was way out you could see how bad it was. so had to buy another and now its loads better and smoother. :D more of a pleasure to drive. :wink:
