Should be about 500kg, another good mod I found was my brakes weren't greased, but bone dry. So I lubed them with spray oil and put plenty of grease on them, this has made things so much smoother. Defo need the front drum brake mod though.

Found a new mod whilst working on the car, the cambelt is overrated and heavy, so I used a big elastic band, which seems to work well, also makes some funny noises and bangs when it slips from time to time.

Whilst working on it further an idea struck me, since my sump keeps getting hit, I should put the engine upside down, this will stop sump damage hugely.

This idea is brilliant!

It it will also increase fuel and oil pressure due to the added effect of more gravity, due to the sump being higher up. Also because the pistions are now falling towards the earth you have freed up 2000 bhp!!!

Genius.
