Progress is progress...
I know these dont look like much at the moment. (a bit of imagination required on your part lol)
But these are my fuel rails in the making. The rails have already been machined. Now some nice 6mm billet brackets should fasten them down nice

Looking good fella!
Loving the attitude of machining all the bits yourself
.
Have you finished correcting the paint after the graphics were removed?

Ross, the paint has been de vinyled and de glued. It has swirls and marks all over it but i will only mark it more whilst working on it. For that reason im waiting till the bulk of the mechanical work is finished and then i'll get it machine corrected before she goes back on the road. Hopefully that way, i wont mark it again

No need for 8 injectors when you can get some pretty big top feed injectors now

Brackets marked, drilled and checked for fitment. They fit perfect, so im quite pleased about that.
Brackets require trimming to suit and rails now marked and aligned for welding

Unfortunately after a small burst of enthusiasm Frayz is now spending all his spare time flying a kite / buggy, with a view to competing.
So don't hold your breaths for completion of this project
