RS are a supplier for us. Standard is good, price isn’t. I’d go with Chad’s recommendation.

Notification of Vehicle Arrival (NOVA)
From 15 April 2013, new or used land vehicles brought permanently into the UK from abroad must be notified to HMRC within 14 days of arrival and any VAT due paid or ‘secured’. A new online system called Notification of Vehicle Arrivals (NOVA) supports this change.

« on: January 13, 2021, 11:16:45 PM »Appreciate your input Dave. Still don’t like the thought of putting unnecessaries into the carbs.
Think it’s a learning curve. Hopefully not expensive.

Do you run a deep sump. Need to understand. The deep sump is footed via the 6mm bolts of the original mesh filter. So, you don’t bother the oil take off, leave as is 🤷🏻♂️ Re: dipstick level, the low mark becomes the high👍🤔
Not magic beans, makes perfect sense to me.
Flags, really appreciate your input.

One more question. I can see the hose over the fan housing 👍Looks like you too use AN fittings. What size AN/ hose for your vent.
Thanks again.
