Don't worry about the baby, it will have to get used to the idea that it comes second to the car lol. Seriously though it will take time, so I will have a fair bit to get back home

Awesome stuff Wun, that will save us some time in the morning.

I just dropped the flywheel, and pressure plate off at Ken Hastings Balancing Services in Preston. He is going to check the balance of the flywheel and PP, and make the balance perfect for me. He said it should be close but they are always out by a little, he said some aftermarket alloy flywheels he has balanced were way out, and they were supposed to be balanced perfect from factory. :?

I just wanted to make sure now, rather than putting it all on and the flywheel vibrates. He will have it ready for me to pickup on friday. :mrgreen:

Spoke to FFG and starting time around 9:00 am is good.
