ok, now i need to get a 17% reduction pulley on the car... i got the pulley, and i found a new Gates belt for it that i can get... i want this to be a 4 hr job

so...
a while ago i read a thread here where a bunch of guys were all helping each other with tools and load pullers etc and generally just "GETTIN-SH1T-DONE!", where can i get a puller and tension releasing thing and a guy who's done it many times to help me? i pay in small amounts of money and large amounts of... Windhoek i believe it was...

oh, and might be putting on an exhaust system too... Where can i get exhaust manifold gasket and Flange gaskets?

I love Windhoek, If you are in no rush I will help you. Just have to finish the tree house and do an assignment for tech but after that I will help. Last time the puller didn't help and I had to resort to more power. Which I wouldn't want to do again. The gaskets you should be able to get from the dealers.

Hey, -

Who knows exactly what the part number of the NGK IRIDIUM *something* one step colder spark plugs are that ALTA, OUTmotoring Way motor works etc. all advise when putting on a reduced Pulley?

 

[Willy]

BK7 odd, there was some in the car, I still have a set of the correct heat range but not iridium.

---

And I have a guy that imports my stuff charged me R115 per plug last time.

 

[fluffy]

What's the difference between the normal and Iridium? Do you think the ones in Ross's car would be ok after standing over a year?

 

[Willy]

yes, should be fine.

Iridium plugs last 100 000 km apparently. the ones in there is probably 30 000 km old.

... cool, P.S. the flex joint was busted... but i just had a new one fitted... that setup DOES sound pretty damn good... quiet, when driving under 3000rpm and under 20% throttle (as in PROPERLY quiet, not PRETORIA VESS "Quiet") but definitely growls with very little rasp when punching it.

 

[fluffy]

ok, the NGK BKR7EQUP is the one the JCW uses... but i cant get them at Naskar, Midas or Autozone ... any ideas?

Import, sorry I will reply to your sms now.
