That's a radical flywheel - the engine is looking great!

You've got some lovely components there, who makes the equal length drive shaft conversion? Not something I've seen before.

It looks like a Jack Knight one to me. Not sure if any other suppliers have replicated it since JKD went under.

Yes it is a jacknight equal length drive shaft kit, it was already fitted when I purchased the motor a few years back.

 

The kit is still available through mini sport

Also a huge thanks to Paul from https://www.weber-ca...o.uk/index.html he carried out a full refurb on my split 45 webers, great value and a quick turn around, and they now look like new!  He also has a link to his friend that works on SU carbs http://www.sucarbs.co.uk/

 

Cheers

We ended up 20th out of 32,2nd in class with 9 seconds behind 1st in class.

It's funny as all day I felt like I was driving like my gran, I did not get the times once through the event ?

Engine arrived on Monday and is currently sitting in the engine bay, just need to button everything back up

 

Bring on IMM2019

Okay, it's been a while since I updated my build 😅
The old girl is still going and a few weeks back it was the jersey rally once again, my first event since 2019!!

Was not feeling overly confident as there were some fast stages this year.

But with dey weather and some confidence it all went well, no incidents, we finished the event 22nd overall and 2nd in class. Happy with our stage times compared to previous years. So here's some in car and other footage from the event
