F'n "C" Spanners!  I was tightening the coil over struts when the "C" Spanner slipped off and I sliced my hand on the guard.
 
Blood was everywhere.

bloody cars ay! ha

Thanks Mezza,
 
Quick Update - Ther springs are all in so just need to get it on the wheels and do it all up nice and tight.  Was planning on today but it is pissing down and the garage has open sides.

To be honest, I "get" the rocker cover look. It's similar to Ferrari and Lambo's. From the photos I think it works. Great lateral thinking buddy!

Yeah, I wasn't sure at first but it has grown on me.

Matt,
On the top view of the carbs there are what appaers to be two breathers. Where will these be terminated too?
Current doing a similar project.

Hi Mate,
 
They are the over flow pipes.  You can tee them together and connect them to the fuel return line to the tank or just leave them as is.
 
I chose to leave them as is as I didn't want heaps of hoses everywhere.  They are also made from soft rubber to so getting a good seal may be a PITA.
 
In all the readups I have read everyone leaves them as is.
 
What carbs on what engine are you using?
 
Cheers,
 
Matt
 
 

Thanks for that Matt,
Going to run R1 Carbs on Silver top Zetec.
Currently making inlet manifold, engine mounts and extractors.
Have to have the engine sitting in place by end of April as national laws are about to change which will inevitably make it harder to compliance after this date.

this thing better be on the ground by now matty......

Yep, Just gotta bleed the brakes and then it's done.
 
I need to get my priorities in order as I have been spending most of my time fishing down at our holiday house in Wilsons Prom.
 
Cheers
