Just for fun, let's make up some possible scenarios for it.

I heard Steve Jackson bought it and plans to 'restore' it back to original :lol:

I have it on good information that it was sold to a Chinese Goverment so they can dismantle it and plan to reproduce it with a massive 1.3 litre daewoo power plant and niva lada running gear ......V8EK4us will then be melted down and used in the manufacture of the said vehicles .......its true ........... :lol: :lol: :lol: ...Fingers

Did u have any problems with your engine bay paint blistering from your log headers
Also can you tell me how much clearance did you have from the paint work
I wrapped my log headers with heat wrap and the paint blistered even up to 10 cm away

My log headers are made out of stainless do u think I would be better off making mild steel and ceramic coating them
