just wondering,

when you have an engine conversion, do you have to change the mileage on your clocks - if you do - how do you do it???

Apparently you don't put the clocks back because it's the whole car that has done the mileage, not the engine - so I heard anyway.

Just make a note of it and try and get a garage stamp/invoice to go with it!
