maybe not

i need cams and been looking today and 288 degree cams

That will be lumpy as hell. Will you need verniers for that? How will you sort the timing if not?

[Tk]

they would be fine

not much to report but had a little play with jaffa
now got brake lights after making a bracket and fitting a mk2 switch that works off the pedal

tbh i'v done more on the van

76mm side bars fitted/painted front vw badge/clear indicators and a little more interior work.
took it for a run to north wales last weekend and it was faultless, got an average 36 mpg and was not hanging about plus driving crazy roads in wales so not to bad for a 5 pot 2.5

it was minty fresh clean when i left , not in the pic

Glad the trip went well. Was talking to someone about your van today. He's another Transporter fan...

[mikeb]

glad it all went well trev did you you brave it and sleep in it or sneek in the house

[Tk]

slept in the van in the mountains in the fog and it was supprisingly alright
was a good weekend apart from the wife leaving her bag in a resturant/pub with her bank cards,iphone,camera etc.. and realising 2 hours into the journey home she had done so !
luckily some of her family were staying on another day so they collected it and everything was still in there
lucky woman

The vans looking quite the cool surf bus:coolgleamA:. And you are very lucky with the handbag.
I must confess i had been looking at T4 transporters:blush5:, But ive bought a vauxhall combo instead as had to be l.e.s compliant.

I was lucky enough to get a late t4 so I'm lez compliant
I hope so anyway I'm off to walthamstow in the morning
