Mate,

That's a seriously kicking Rocco you have there!! Your £66 charity case is hands down better than my £100 family hand me down case, lol.

Oil catcher... hmmm... might have to invest when the engine gets it's overhaul :P

And bonnet bra? Where? How much? If not readily available, would I be able to harrass you for some photo's the next time you have "it" out to make one up myself? :D

I reckon so bud, prices depend on what you want, but the head-work gave me an extra 15-20BHP. She also starts easier too of a morning. Give him a bell mate, real helpfull chap.
