The shell is fully seam welded with strengthened strut tops,fully firewalled.Its going to run a 22b replica front bumper with carbon fog covers,rear defuser with flat floor front to rear.It has full WRC rear cross member and anti roll bar mounts,it will run a modified standard rear cross member for now though.It doesn't have the rear spoiler or bonnet and rcm scoop on now as in the first picture as these are not mine.It has full welded in seat mounts and comp battery box fitted for a oddessey battery.Its going to run twin bosch 8bar 200ltr fuel pumps.

The engine for this is my old one out of the gold scoob, but with a few more mods.
Its a ej22 closed deck block with piston oil squirters,bored out 40thou with wisco pistons and manley rods. Ej257 crank machined for centre thrust acl race bearings,12mm modified oil pump with cosworth baffle plate. 11mm arp head studs which are going to be replaced with 14mm ones,cometic gaskets with avcs heads (maybe ported yet as well). Inlet manifold to be decided yet either my phase 1 reversed but widened to fit or a 2001 bugeye reversed one with aps 8 injecter setup? Gt spec gen2 headers with twisted turbo setup running at the mo a gt35 with .63 housing but hopefully it will have a tial .82 stainless housing. RCM filter and aluminium inlet,race fuel cell with 2 bosch 8bar 200ltr pumps. Side exit exhaust system, Solaris ecu mapped by simon of cause (JGM).

Oh and a 75 shot of nos hopefully to finish.
The aim of 600+ on pump and 660 on race then the nos on top

Theres a thread on 22b about Cosworth 11mm headstuds that might be of interest to you before you start modifying the block to take 14mm ones

Hi mate no they were not from ht autos,moulds were made from original 22b panels then the panels were made in carbon fibre.The moulds are owned by a friend and i can get them made for you if needed.
