Just past 500,000 k

Well the old girl just past the magic half a million kilometers. One thing for sure the SVX are tough. At this time I am betting I will get a possiable another 200,000.

Re: Just past 500,000 k

Got 445,00 from the orignal motor would have made it if I didn't fill it with mud on a bush trip. Good question about the gear light, I have rewired the dash so as 1st gear is slow speed radiator fan, 2nd gear is medium speed radiator fan and when they are both on its full speed. The reason I did that is so I can learn more about the engine cooling issues for the race car I have. Also have wired to the 4WD drive light on the left top of the dash to come on when the DCCD is turned on.
