Hi Bob,

Keep forgetting to ask every time I see you, but how does Mr Bo's 1776 pull all loaded up with family and stuff with the caravan behind? (Do you know what the caravan weighs?). Interested because I towed a customer's dead van recently with Burn-E and he reckoned it pulled harder on tow than running with its stock 1600!!! The only fundamental difference between our engines is the cam, however I don't know how our gear ratios compare.

Cheers, Carl.

Hi Carl,
I was really pleased with how Mr Bo pulled fully loaded, with all the stuff the wife & 3 little girls have to take :roll:

& the caravan, which on memory is 600kg, he did really well. The gear box is out of a type 3 , although I can't remember the ratio's , I know 3rd is really long & the whole set up very flexible.
Is Steve's bus in paint yet ?
Cheers Bob.

I'm not excited at all :roll:

Only 28 days to wait, unless I can get Ivan to send me one sooner & to top it all it's my little girl , Jasmine's birthday the same day, who do you think will have more trouble sleeping the night before ? :lol:
