  5. Cheer's guys for all the info, I've never been abroad before other than a holiday in France when I was a kid in my young teens but we drove there so flying will be completely new to me but I am really looking forward to it, I've never flown before and scared of heights but up to now i'm not worried about it but probably will on the day but then it will be to late to chicken out so i'll just have to get on with it and try and enjoy it

  22. Yes i still have the original one but its a 200 Def one as originally the engine was a Def engine but re-dressed as a Disco engine ( damaged timing case ) with a 300 turbo / manifold now fitted. Would you happen to have the part number for the olive so i can buy one
