Cheers Guys

Spot on Mickas[;^)]

Its got to stop somewhere[:p] The problem at the moment is that the car isnt at home so I have time to think...very dangerous[:p]

I reckon the baffled sump will be a good compromise,I might even wing the sump but will play it by ear at this stage...no promises[(#)]

I am totally in love with your car Phil! It is a beast and looks so nice and tidy How much is it to get the power steering kit? And much modification?

Cheers Rhys.

Hi Rhys,

The motor unit cost around $300 landed although I believe I got very lucky with the shipping cost. The rest is custom made and requires a fair bit of work.It all depends on how much equipment you have access to. I think Santa got a converted kit recently for around $1000 which is probably about right knowing the work involved.

Cheers,

Phil.

Not to forget these pearlers produced during a recent RS2000 brake upgrade[:p] They are custom spec to mount Chrysler 300c SRT8 rotors to Mk1 Cortina struts They do away with the old cast iron hubs and will also carry an abs tone wheel for the traction control...abs,now there's another idea[%] Thanks to Mark for the design and production of these puppies Here they are complete with Smcka centre caps[;^)]
