Omega Owners Forum - Watch out Mike Dundee

Martin Imber Over Active Poster Offline LPG Omega V6 - Keyfobs Rebuilt Posts: 20110 Worcester Gender: Drives: 2001 Omega 2.6CD LPG & 3.0 cams	Watch out Mike Dundee 26. May 2009 at 18:53 There is another quick 2.6 now, mine needs to get used to the new cams but pulls like a 3.0 over 5000rpm. I reckon mine is now second quickest 2.6 on the forum after Mikes. When I have redone 135 head gasket and checked over to a higher standard than now it will fly. As to head skimming - too many fixed bolt positions I found.

May 2009 at 19:39 Yours would be quicker - but 2.6 are lower geared. Can I hang on to your kit until I redo 135? Very useful and after watching the DVD properly - easy
