Mine is the fastest by far. Just look at it:
Just need to connect those wires, put in an engine and a few other bits, paint it, put some wheels on, put in a dash and some pedals... I might be missing a few steps.....

And watch that baby fly lol

Jokes aside, car should slowly be coming on. Engine is back from Rowleys and will be in by the week end. All the priming is done and it awaits its paint.

Still, its not going to be ready by the end of the month as initially thought lol.

I wanted the engine to be new so had the heads replaced. The donor stuff wouldn't work for me and what I wanted to do.

What did you do about the clocks? Did you reset the odometer or use a new set of clocks?

donor?
I was initially going to use the donor cars heads but decided against that. Or shall I say those bits were not up to scratch.

Have to say that the only mods in terms of power I would make to mine are to make air-intake straighter. Certainly has plenty of power for me - I can't afford any more underwear at the mo!
Also impressed by mpg with the 6 speed box.
The only serious upgrade that is needed is to the driver!

I don't reckon that my is gunna have the most power but should be lots of fun.
Idea was for now to keep the rebuild cheap n simple.
The lightest variant I reckon I can claim that.
And I look forward to a head to head....
My thoughts? Well having driven Nicks..in the wet it was a monster..I just be happy with keeping up on a much much smaller build budget....BUT I do have a 2.2 planned for later date and I expect I will break the gearbox (AGAIN)so pondering on gearkits.....

Martin; Ians Build should be a match power wise, Marks I reckon deffo got the best sprint box and brake combo, BUT it wil be a close run thing you know...

See how she gets on mapping few weeks away with Mr Simpson

I must say I agree I think the intake/feed could be much improved..when you are ready we shall again improve it
