Projects, and finding the damn time to do them
A couple of months ago I took out a lease on an industrial unit here in my local town. This has two aims:
1: Convert some cars to run LPG, starting with an Audi A6 I bought specially for the purpose. If it makes a reasonable profit, I shall convert another...and see where it goes
2: Overhaul an engine with a view to replacing the current one in the disco. This is hopefully gonna end up with the following:
a: complete stripdown, acid dip, rebore/line cylinders, new main bearings, lightened and balanced crank
b: overhauled cylinder heads, a mild cam, tubular exhaust (keeping the cats)
c: Megasquirt conversion, distributor replaced with coil packs, and set up so i can run lpg/bioethanol/petrol using a single ecu.
d: uprated gearbox, transfer box and diffs.
e: snorkel, rocksliders and lights.
#1 is the priority, but at the moment I'm working on my day job, which is taking up a large proportion of my time, leaving me with not much to do anything else - i'm even struggling to run at the moment....
