Hi everyone, well it has been a long painful journey and nothing has really happened on the car. Personal delemas had to be dealt with first but now starting to get some stuff organized.

Maybe time to tackle some of the wiring.

18 years later the motor having a refresh and some better quality components being fitted.
Upgraded from competition diff pin to 4 pin diff. Billet flywheel now, cometic head gasket (after a block skim), adjustable timing gears and better cam shafts more suited for spirited driving. Will make a decent road going weekend warrior motor. Head a little bit of a tidy up and increase in cfm allowing for more hp to be drawn out of motor.

The result of 1 drag race session. Kept asking me to come fwd 10ft a time. Until was at staging lanes. Hard on clutches to say the least.

Such a shame to hide such great craftsmanship. Had to replace the whole set up after 1 drag racing event. These clutch set ups don't do 'just edge fwd' every 10seconds to move 10ft towards staging lanes. Lesson learnt.
