Wow, that looks amazing!

Question though, are your brakes on the right way?

Looks lovely mate! Have you cut the hole in the bulkhead yet for the KAD linkage? Mine took me about 5 hours to get the hole the perfect size and shape, I hate how most people cut it oversize then try and cover up the mess.

Looks like a REALLY nice project, those front brakes are HUGE
