Colin i had those Kent solid lifters in my old sport engine and had loads of grief with them keep winding themselves in ,so we but a tack of weld on them when they were set right,i am not sure how old they were so it might be an age thing but something to keep an eye on
Thanks, I will discuss that with the man who's fitting them for me.Quote:

They are incredibly lightweight, the front wings are just 1kg each.
Whilst I was in the Darlington vicinity I also had a chance to visit the Royston tractor and Nova collection, which was most interesting. Thanks to him for his hospitality.
Started by fitting the rear bumper, the rest of the kit will probably wait until I strip and paint the car at a later date;

Not much else to report, the intercooler spray is all now wired in and functional, and next week it's off to BTEC Racing for the solid lifters to be fitted.
christ. royalty status now eh lol
noooo mk2 fail :(
cant wait to see them all fitted Colin, is the boot next on the carbon fiber list ?
Great catching up Colin;) , those panels are Uber light:eek:
Your welcome to call any time, as long as I can pop down for a rummage through your spareslol
Noooo mk2 stuff :(
Couldn't you of just got a early mk1 bumper/grill and snowplough moulded the same as the mk2 stuff ??
I know this nova is more for competition than looks but putting mk2 stuff on kinda takes something away from it IMO
I really didn't want to go away from the Mk.1 look myself, but there are only moulds for the Mk.2 out there, and the cost of having new moulds made for a one-off set of Mk.1 panels would have been astranomical.Quote:
