Engine bay plates

[bungle117]

At the end of next month the 16v conversion takes place :) i am aware that the bay requires welding although clicking through the forums i remember seeing plates pre made that weld in for extra strenth, could any one point me in the direction of a website (clicky link would be nice) many thanks all :)

HH Motorsport is literally about a mile from where I'm sitting now. Have been in their workshops and their stuff is top-notch. I think the Nova strengthening plate kit is £77.88 inc. VAT.

They also do a "fast road" plating kit which is cheaper and is only missing the sump guard bits..

Still overkill on the roads/track imho

i always wondered about this could someone make there own plates up whats so speical about them? How thick is the steel? Then if someone puts up there pictures of there hh kit you could just copy it? :)

just let them do it, they invented the kit in the first place, not just copied it like everyone else....

Yeah you could cut it easily enough but would take gaes, you will need to buy the plate then trace an exsisting kit etc etc and you would save about £20 and lose 2 fingers!
