baaaah its kinda stopped again XD  got so much stuff on order, just need to ACTUALLY GET IT! bah shops suck.  i have got a custom cobra seat ordered with will look el bollocko. cylinder heads, engine parts, wheels, arches, lights, electronics, stickers, glass, rubbers (ooheer missus) fuel tanks,   blaaady loads!

 

hah yeah, i just bolt shiney ******* on;)    

[Artful Dodger]

just a small one.   got the engine and gear the other day, just got round to crack detecting the lots and good news is its all fine to be subject to another season of high rpm

 

the pistons are super duper rare, this is probably the only set you will ever see:P    proper special tuning pistons. and cooper S rods. win

 

the cranks a std 998 crank thats been hardened, i think due to the err, hardcore balencing with a grinder thats been done im going to send it off for a few jobs to be done on it, wedging, counterbalencing, balencing etc. make it indistructable

 

 

 

 

 

sweet time to go spend more money.  il be back

[BronkoMini]

[redhot-mini]

Love this mini that roll cage where did you get it from its exactly the one im looking for

[Artful Dodger]

It's a safety devices multipoint cage, minisport only

[Artful Dodger]

everything is at home now, everything important has been crack detected and is all good. the cranks going to be sorted, lightened, counterweight improvements and stress relieving.  tomorrow inm going to spend many hours lightening and polishing the rockers.  i want to build this engine the old skool way so no shiny new parts, just hard work, engineering, and mechanical brilliance  cant wait!

[Artful Dodger]

done a few bits. everything crack detected and brought home for assembly. rockers have been modifed, lightened, balanced and shot peened :)  theyre quality.  would only sell them for some high lift ones. ;)

 

visual aids

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

questionable for a crack, so this one got subbed out for one i had in stock. later investigation reveled no crack and it was just dye seapage. 

 

 

in my room for the build ;) got to stay warm!

 

 

blasted and painted

 

 

 

 

 

 

clutch housing blasted and lacquered.  looks much shinier than this!! 

 

 

 

order needed to build this badboy up!
