That's a fair bit of RetroSport you've got there. Your engine bay looks really smart.

Just a word of warning, be careful that the ht clamps dont touch the alternator / braided hose.

When I had mine setup on the rollers the other month, we noticed the leads were jumping because of the clamps, so had to take them off.

thanks for the heads up but the clamps are no where near any metal parts ,they look a lot closer on the pics than they actually are in reality .

I have a question! 

 

These Redbull Cans (or john smith cans.. I see you there!) How do you make them? I know it sounds a bit daft but I think it would go quite nicely with what I have planned..

 

I would show you guys my rocker cover at the mo but im still trying to figure out how to get images up on here, should be on soon!

 

Anyway, any help on the cans? please?

Get a can of your choice, cut off top and bottom, cut down the side*, fit around coil, refit coil clamp.

 

*Be careful of sharp edges ;D

 

 

 

for pictures click on more reply option and scroll down a tad and there should be a upload thing or you can create a photobucket account, upload your pics and copy the IMG code into your post.
