Guest Andrew Report post Posted July 12, 2006 Pictures of the motor (front of it), wiring loom, plug, battery connections would be good. Edit: Just read you are going DOWN in displacement (weeerd :-D ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I spose thats the prob when your toy car is also your daily driver. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
