looking great... I love those mini alternators. as a matter of interest, what are the first three letters of your reg? did you get NOX again?

My 87 GSXR did that once. Garage is under the house, came out the bedroom in the morning and the house stank of petrol... vacuum fuel tap hadn't shut off and dumped a full tankfull into the engine and over the floor. Needless to say I quickly converted it to a manual fueltap.

Of course thats totally unrelated to your Holley problems :)

No, I got PHR this time Dorian and it's a seven digit reg as well unfortunately, doesn't fit quite right on an american style plate as well as a six does.

How do you go about choosing the letters on your reg assuming
this is its first registration in the U.k?

As far as I'm aware you don't, you just get what you're given.

Blues right Ade, the age related plates that are given out are usually non transferable as well, so once it's registered against your car, you can't change it.
Might be different if you already own / or intend to buy a plate to put on but you'd need to check the rules for this. All I know is you can't put a registration that's newer than your car on it.

Fixed the leaking heater hose and thermostat housing, so back on the road. I want to use original style exhaust tips when I put a proper exhaust on it so thought I'd have a look on eBay to see if there was something cheap I could use for now to cheer it up a bit. I found these that don't look too modern and I think they look ok for now.
