Cheers mike. It will be out at the start of next year hopefully at the fast show at Santa poD.
Looking good mate! as yours is coming together mine is coming apart :)
Like that clutch and flywheel, thought you was sticking to single plate? if i have the money i might be changing that on mine as well for 5.25" ;)
Im looking forward to seeing at the fast show! i shall be there and hopefully quicker as i got beaten by a pug that pulled a 12.47!
Cheers mate. Why is yours coming to bits? I bought that setup baecause the price difference wasnt much and the option was dangled in front of me. Why a 5.25"?Quote:

Well its update time. Me and wwmnw cracked on this morning to trial fit the clutch assembly to get the measurements to figure out which hydraulic bearing is needed.
We started by weighting the old clutch and new clutch assembly. You might be suprised at the weight differences.

When speaking to steve we have come to the conclusion that running a alloy spacer between the box and block and power filing and touch of the case should do the trick. I have got loads more to update We just ran out of time to take the pics but ill try and do that while I make a template spacer tomorrow.
Cheers Gareth
get the grinder out!!!
As much fun as that would be, it might be a bit harshQuote:

How much clearance do you need mate? as in how thick is the spacer going to be?
