Hey Ramond!
Long time no chat. That is one sweet ride! Guttering for the air box, pure class!
I am insanely jealous, how much power is she putting out?

Hi Rob!
The wheels are Compomotive MO et0 front, and FR et27 rear, both 8x16.
Its not road legal, but I have driven it briefly on trade plates, so it all works.
Not finished yet, but 99.9%

Oh, and yeah, 220bhp. I didnt want to strangle 230-240 out of it and it only works in the last 500rpm of the rev range. Thats ok for circuits, but I needed an engine that pulls from low down for hillclimbing and maybe tarmac rallying. It produces 170lbs from 2500 to 7500 which I think is pretty good. Dunnell are dear, but they sure build a good engine!
