The front turrets are cut and raised(more shocktravel) and are place further back(more caster), GSI shockplates and drilled 3 holes.
Interesting update on what’s happening after Project Binky ends;

can’t wait to see what they do with the 205, and the MG will be something else!

I widetracked my old 205 gti using 309 gti wishbones driveshafts and rear beam. Something tells me they won’t be so predictable!
im looking forward to the 6litre rwd Ford - which im guessing is their ex library lorry which will be binky a transporter- the loading mechanism will probably end up worthy of a Nobel prize

I used to have a few 309s - I especially liked the 3 doors with the remote opening rear windows!
Decision made on the new top mounts, I am fitting these;
Meanwhile I have decided to use Toyota coilpacks for my COP conversion, and am now modifying a spare cam cover to suit (and delete a bit of extra weight too);
Whilst adding in weight in the form of extra safety/stiffness;
And to round off a little update, I went on a course on Friday to learn to anodise aluminium, my first of what will be many goes before I start in earnest on all the bits of the Nova which need anodising;

Topmounts are very interesting, I was browsing all options available a few months ago too. Universal, BMW, Escort etc ones. Do you plan to mount them on top of the turrets as thats how it looks like they're designed?
Hi Iain.
Yes, these top mounts come with a steel plate, with captive nuts all pre-fitted. So you essentially just slice off the top of your turret and weld in the new one.
At least that’s the theory. The new top mounts should be with me later in the week, so I can update more after that.
