Not sure yet. The guys doing the work JWA racing are designing and fitting it. They've seen the turnermotorsport design to get them started. I'll post up some pictures as the work progresses.

NIce one thanks,
I only ask as it's one of the jobs I'm looking at doing as well so the design would be helpful.

Cheers,

Some parts back from blasting and ready for powder coating.

Crank and water pump also inspected. Progress steady but it's coming together.

Nice work so far although I'm slightly confused at why you've powder coated the rear salad tongs ( control arms ) when new can be bought for very little, aswell as not being greatly substantial if track driving.

A set of adjustable rear arms is probably £150 on your door step.
Safety and more adjustability.

Fair point wackojacko. Something we've possibly overlooked. Many thanks Jbad.
