Hate to say it but I think that they have fitted the arches the wrong way, looks like the fronts are on the back. Would hate for it all to be together then have to be done again. The shape doesn't look right.

still no cams, good not to rush things but waiting along time takes the pi55. sure your eager to see what the car feels like.
do you think the daily driver would do the handling course quicker at sso than the full spec track car

planning to keep weight to a minimum.. it may have an extra removable tank added if I need more fuel.. but with no heater, little ventilation, plastic doors and windows.. etc etc
I think 80~100miles range on light throttle should surfice.. just carry a jerry can to top it up..

Well on Friday ian and I removed the oe fuel tank.
I spoke to piper today and the cams have just finished the hardenning process so have to be ground or the grinding checked and then they are complete.
I have decided not to rush the car and so it will be complete when suits.
Currently I am away mapping in ireland and the car along with the workshop it is currently in are moving building/location later this week.
So hopefully all the parts of the jigsaw might start to come together over the next month or so

pump is very loud so under the car works noise wise and cooling wise..
easy to check for leaks too.. just look under the car.. in a box I would be worried about a leak and no noticing..
