Couldn't find a section dedicated to this here, which is a shame. But I found we currently have a project car being built to compete in hill climbs, it's a Peugeot 306 powered by a Cosworth engine. The build has been a long process, but the Quaife ATB diff has just been added along with swirl tank, new fueling system http://www.fueltopia.co.uk/profiles/blogs/306-cosw...

Have you thought about what class you will be entering this car in? Quite often people don't. Your project being a Peugeot powered by a Ford will put it into the Libre class and whilst you will probably get a lot of fun out of it you will almost certainly get blown away by the Sports Racing cars within the class. I am not wishing to put a downer on your project but after many years in the sport I have seen lots of projects such as this. Initially you will have some fun, until you realise that unless the sports racers stay away you can't win. Oh yes and we all say that winning isn't important when we start, but it is.
