Absolutely Fantastic! Love the sound of a v8 and would love one in my mk1. Are you going to leave it ratty looking or paint it up?

[UncleThunderpants]

Hi dude, thanks for your kind remarks! I'll paint it one day, it has been in primer for years. If you ever fancy fitting a v8 in your mk1, send me an email and i can give you any advice on parts to use etc!
