    A total of 4 Mk1s and a Mk3 in the drive, quite a sight.

    Fixed a loose wire on Josh's car and topped up the oil a bit.

    Should be a good Golf turn out at DOVW this year.

    Pete

    was an awesome night, the cruising with Jarred and Rach was really awesome, nothing quite like the sound of 2 mk1's side by side at 6,000rpm

    props to Pete that it ran like this without all the usualy niggles that come with engine conversions!

    It's good. Gear stick actually goes where it's meant too. (at least just sitting there they did) They were pretty shagged.

    Nice bit of handy work there Pete

    By rev limiter I hope you're not referring to valve bounce?
