colin does only a few miles a meeting.. so as long as the battery can run it, & start it a couple of times, the hp saving from not having an alt. is well worth it.

I'm fully aware of that and also how hard those miles will be on the battery.
i think colin has been using an external jump battery..
you could under drive the alternator a bit with a larger pulley to offset the drag on the engine, or get a super expensive mag drive one that can be freewheeling at the flick of a switch, its all weight though i guess
How bad was the damage on front end will you be putting it back to mk 1
The fabrication continues..............
Seen this Nova in here so i thought maybe you like some more pictures of it...
Today was Bergrennen Oberhallau (Hillclimb) in Switzerland and i couldn't resist to be a spectator and grab a few pics :d
