Hi Everyone,

Its been a while since an update...still not finished but getting closer. The bottom end is now so close to being ready to assemble, the front pulley and alloy flywheel are now modified and just need to be balanced, then its ready for assembly !!

I have had a change of direction with the wheels too...Im about to order a set of these in 18x8 and 18x10...Fehlbie has a lot to answer for!!! After seeing his set up close on his car recently, it made the decision easy[:p]

Nice choice of rim Phil !
I would like to know how he keeps them inside the guards without installing bubbles !
Must have tubbed the rear and custom set up on the front.

Hi Fehlbie,

Seeing yours at Gazspeed sealed it for me[:p] I have a deposit for the Simmons, should be picked up and paid for by Monday I have submitted all the tech drawings to Image Wheels to confirm rim split sizes etc so will be ready to order this Wednesday

Hi Stanley,

They certainly are a fun thing to play with[:p] My completion dates have so far come and gone several times over but hoping to have it running and the shakedown completed in time for the SFCC track day in September
