m50 manifold swap.

[nickso]

can i really get away with using the m52 throttle body or is it simply a bodge?

ive read on here ive got to slip a bit of metal between the TB and the manifold as its got two rubber seals facing each other that wont seal properly if i dont do anything. is that right?

No point, use the M50 throttle and cable for a better fit

[nickso]

bah, that means ive got to buy one now.

thanks again though dan.

Nickso, can't remember where you are?

Anywhere near Inverkeathing?

[nickso]

im in zum wilden hirsch....er no seriously im in aberdeen. not close to inverkeithing, whats going on there? frag fest?

[E30BeemerLad]

there's a U-Pull it there, bits are cheap as chips.

[nickso]

ah i see. keep meaning to have a look on the site. i thought you only got to frag the whole car, do they do single bits?

You can either buy a car and frag it to death (you can't keep the battery, cat or shell)

Or you can walk around the yard and take what you want and then pay as you leave. How it should be.

i.e £10 for a wing, £25 for a complete door, £10 for a bonnet etc

i love my current scrappy for just that...you walk round, take what you want, go see stan (the dude who sets prices by whatever he feels like) and invariably pay dick all for it.

if you get crushed by a car or cut your arm off i'm sure stan would be compltely unfazed.
