Re: [Mk2] [NA] The V12 Mk2 thread
Right quick question, swapping the throttles round to the other end on noticed I had no problems! Now this I a problem cause there is no oil filler! How the he'll do you put oil in on this! Surely not through the dip stick???

Re: [Mk2] [NA] The V12 Mk2 thread
That does sound like a smart idea, already getting carried away! Gotta get hold of a gearbox still, I think the diesel box ratios are to low? Gotta find a petrol one me thinks? How far you into your build now if you don't mind me asking?

Re: [Mk2] [NA] The V12 Mk2 thread
Cheers! That's good news don't want to tread on your toes! I've got the fuel tank off already and was debating on shortening or fuel cell, after a while I though shortening the original would be better for weight distribution?
