This may be a bit of thread creep but..
Im very impressed with the video around bedford and Im an avid small block (8v) fan, after seeing that I cant wait to drive mine again now.
Been reading up a lot about the adjustable tca tie bar kit. This is my first evening of posting on threads in five years, over the last few days Ive been busy reading up on all the interesting projects over the years, getting myself back into the scene. I am looking for a few bits for my car. Youre probably aware that over on another thread my good friend novacabrio is busy finishing off my long overdue and ongoing project, what was a track orientated sport, and after a ground up rebuild, and then almost six years of being idle now a nice mix of clean original sport and track car, frankly if Mark continues as I know he will itll be virtually concourse, Cheers Mark.
I am interested to know jonlem, if your friend is interested in splitting the gearbox from the engine? I am interested in the sccr gear set, and how much he would want? I am also interested in the adjustable tca / tie bar set, I have long dreamed of the pilbeam set up and this kit looks very well put together and as good as that kit. What is the lead time if I was to order a kit?

Hi Paul,
Glad to hear you are getting back on with things, like yourself I have been building a car for over 4 years but it IS a car and they are far from the most important things in our lives !
I'm sure Ben will be pleased to hear the nice comments about the video, even more so when I think how poor the quality was of the video I uploaded !
The gearbox on that engine is only a F13 c/r with a altered cwp and a Quaife ATB, the SCCR kit that you may of read is on the spec sheet for the new engine and gearbox.
There is a SCCR box and plate diff on ebay at the moment though for what I would say is sensible money, their not the cheapest things new sadly and so do seem to hold their money to a point.
The tie bar kits are just about ready to go, everything has been laser cut and I know he only has to weld them together (which isn't 5 mins work but were not talking months)
I am seeing him tomorrow though so I will ask when he could knock a set up for you, IMO they are on par with the pilbeam set, ok they do not look identical but they do function the same and there not supplied with the cheap rose joints either and they are ofcourse a LOT less than the Pilbeam setup which was the main reason to offer them to other people.
Drop me a PM with your number and I'll give you a call once I've spoken to him.
