Paul,

I love weight saving... you've done some great work.

The Aluminium timing chain cover, did you fabricate that yourself?

Do you have a few more pictures of your weight saving?

Any more things that you've drilled or removed material from.

Im about to start this process and would like to get a couple ideas of where the weight could be lost.

[gregh55]

Yeah, they are, a few years old now, don't think I've seen you there for a while though!

Not a problem!

[jayare]

Just trying to spot something in those photos that's standard! Engine mount, possibly steering rack, but knowing you even if they look standard they're probably not!
