Your all evil i tell you!!
Especially Simon - V8......i have clouded my thinking enough without adding to it.
Bar Johnmor - the lone voice of reason 
It is tempting, although TBH i have yet to blag a ride in a BEC....but that might seal my fate completely. Any tips on the best place to try and blag
a ride? (although its probably a bad idea) Unfortunately its a bit far to MK just to try out one of the demonstrators.

So why not do it properly and build a middy?

Theres always those great long country roads when all that torque pays dividends
You've never driven a BEC then? You only need shift gear quickly because it accelerates so fast. As for long country roads, having so many
revs makes them a dream.

Thanks OX i might take you up on that (after i have taken into consideration the previous half dozen posts or so ) if i havnt jumped one way or the
other by then....
....that blackbird kit that Mal had a while back looked tempting (im aware of the issues of choosing BB) but luckily/unfotunately the tintop needs
some £££'s spent on it so i have a while to make up my mind
