Good, very good. I do like the jacking point construct. If you've kept the templates, you could be a popular man! That's the sort of panel people will need to construct in the future.

Maybe we need to think about setting up a sub section to keep the info in one easily found location? Indianajones servo bracket, your jacking points etc. Really helpful photos; hopefully the other side will be easier. Regards David Good, very good. I do like the jacking point construct.

Paul Yes i agree it would be useful As i also have the dash board modifications i did when i was running the car  The other side will be easier as i have purchase a full new membrane so i can chop that up easier Paul |

Paul Good to see you are progressing well and it's coming together. Thanks for the tip, I guess we are all guilty of not taking adequate precautions at times, glad to read you have recovered it could have been serious. David A little progress there for you all, just a tip when grinding please wear goggle not glasses as i spent 3 hrs in hospital yesterday after a bit flew up inside my glasses and into my eye, all sorted now but very painful and uncomfortable for a while. Paul |

Hi Chris I hope the photos help, its always good to see things before you embark on projects. Just a question does anybody know of a trustworthy company to do my cylinder head in the north west, it needs the unleaded treatment. At the risk of starting the age old debate of should you or should you not get hardened seats. I need it doing as it looks like the valves have started to recede into the seats already. Paul That looks like a lot of progress to me! Thanks Paul for the detailed photos regards David Any progress is good progress, Paul! Chris. |
