Location: Southport, North West		Cheers, pity that was the last time the car was on the road!

Just a small update, car is now off the road and sat on the drive. Not sure what my next step with be with the car, either new VVC engine or maybe convert to PG1 with LSD and a turbo engine. Either way, I doubt it will be seeing the road for quite a while so will be going into the garage over winter hopefully to work on it.

Location: Southport, North West		Well I shall see, quite tempted by a turbo conversion but thats so common now, I quite fancy something a bit more unique like a supercharger as its not going to be doing large milages I can live with it doing 20mpg on a run

Haha, and leave my car on axle stands?

@colesy - Its not that difficult, you need to put a feed from the positive terminal on your battery, to a switch, then from the switch to the positive feed on the fan plug so it can override the thermostat should that not work correct.
