Geoff

You know my preference is not for MK1's but that engine bay is causing the front of my pants to stick out just a little further than normal ..

Just a bit of an update, Not a lot has happened for a while, but have still been buying a few nice parts,
Today I made up an instrument panel. Gdub kindly gave me the blank panel and today I cut out the gauge holes,and fitted the battery isolater switch and the Start button panel.
Also purchased a Hi-torque starter motor, 5 speed T9 Sierra Gearbox with quickshift. Bias adjustable pedal box and hydraulic co axial clutch.
Also purchased a full Cosworth YB motor including Turbo.
Will resize some Pics and post them.

That mastercylinder was out of a Gemini. I have since scrapped it because I didn't have enough clearance with the Ashleys, I felt they would boil the fluid in the cylinder so I have removed it and fitted a Pedalbox, which I am happier with anyway.

Having trouble resizing the pics. Will post them as soon as I get sorted

Great Tahnks Geoff,

I was hoping to do something different but could find a solution. My N/A Cossie engine is built, just need to find the time to fit. House renos and a new baby due in the coming weeks are tieing up alot of time.

You car is looking good.
