  1UZFE ShakeDown Oran Park 16/12/06

December 16th 2006

The virgin run of Bob Muir's Oz Boss (http://www.ozboss.net/) open wheeler running Erol's 1UZ-FE took place on a grizzly morning at Oran Park Raceway. The unopened block and heads were run exactly delivered off the importer's boat (Tokyo Taxi!) including the plugs - which proved to be a let down by mid morning, the girl developing an annoying miss. None the less, the powerplant proved to be suprisingly smooth, with Bob smiling broadly after pitting due to the miss. Videos of the morning's events area available for download in the members area of the forums.  Complete article to accompany these pics available here...
