Well it is now past mid 2005 and I am only a little closer to getting there. The actual vehicle is essentially ready to be painted after practically replacing half a car . I had to close my workshop as teh building was sold with only a few weeks notice to find another arrangement while the seller al...

well as all things go the idea has gotten far from its original concept by way of "bolt that on and you have to have this to cope with it" I will not be running this year but will be a couple of months behind.We are currently awaiting the pistons from the US as there was not a dished forged alloy pi...

well the twin Garrett GT37 turbo's have arrived aswell as my boost control solenoids and dual igniter units. Pick up the block on Sunday and start to measure it up to make the manifolds and plenum chamber.

well the twin throttle bodies and the high flow fuel injectors have arrived thanx to a parts bin at an auto manufacturer's development workshop.

First thing I did when I got back was make a call to a mate who has agreed to make up the custom inlet manifolds and all the housing and tubes for the engine and also rollcage.
