    Locktight ain't good enough !!!!!
    I've swopped all the 3x alternator bolts with extra long bolts and nyloc nuts , then drilled holes through them and fitted "R" clips . Plus a nylon fan belt tension arm to stop the casings breaking . Works a treat and will save you 6x alternators !!!!!
    For the starter motor i've got masssive long bolts going right through the bell housing with nyloc nuts on the other side . This stopped about 3x starters a year falling out and exploding on the x-member !!!!!

    Tick tock goes the clock and the clock don't lie .
    12.4sec to 109mph With NO turbo , NO gay trailer , NO slicks , NO gas , NO race fuel and NO bits missing . Beat that !!!!

            Hopefully going out again today. Was supposed to have gone to a classic show at Weston Park to be an honourary Capri for the day but there was moisture in the air this morning so politely declined
            Economy is looking a little worrying though. Munched £10 of Super to do 35 miles yesterday

                      Done another 50 miles this afternoon. All is still good. The Nipple came round so we went for a drive over to Sherwood Forest, took some pics then just took a drive over to his mums but I didn't get invited in for tea........
