Uh, um, ah, (insert chocolate bar in mouth here) whistle whistle whistle .....

To tell you the truth I actually did take your advice, it DOES clear it when the hoods closed, but it must be only by a c hair, it only happens when you REALLY get into it and the motor lifts. It doesnt hit by much, I prob could have just taking a hammer to it, (Ricki insert pic in mind of me hitting it with hammer) hehehehee

It hardly hits but you can see the red paint where it did,


BUT IT'S ENOUGH TO KILL YOU, WRECK IT, OR BLOW A MOTOR ........
TG in my case it ONLY turned out to be experiencing all the power a 2.6 at WOT can make, CAN YOU SAY BOOST!!!

See buddy not bashing the KB, Vendor or Rob.
He does some daft things but we all do from time to time.
But you have to laugh - fek he couda givin it large going up his driveway and demolished his timber shed (sorry his house)

Anyway a problem solved - however a word of warning in the distructions
would be advisable.

So will this be the KB 2.6 v Whipple Shoot out ???


Rob get yer tune done ASAP

Gator be ready for him


May the best man / truck win - are you going for PINKS ???


Best of luck Rob and I am pleased you made yer peace with Jim too.
Not worth falling out over things.

Was good to talk today buddy

Rob(and other KB owners): Why not just file down the throttle arm 'end' instead of cutting a hole in the hood? Since it just touched the hood a 'tad', seems like a file would do the trick.
