If they have lucas pumps it will shaft them fairly quick running it on veggie oil. The bosch pumps are fine on veggie oil though, if you get used stuff you will have to filter it properly.

my next door neighbor has got my old 306, he has just fitted a pump from a 2.5 izusu engine plus bigger injectors, along with a t3 turbo plus a front mount intercooler, no shit but its as quick as my golf gti 1.8t.

wont it smoke to much on engine oil?
