One of my all time favourites matthew,
You going to any shows next year would love to see this in the flesh
I echo the above. Always been one of the best around, hopefully putting your own stamp on it can only improve things further mate! I agree with ditchign the smooth boot and the mistrals, loving the O.Z's. A high spec turbo motor will just be the icing on the cake!
whats the compression ratio going to me mate?? thats a very hefty gasket??
such an awesome car as said previous, do you think the SCCR will cope ????
maybe if you keep the sccr can you get an f28 flywheel??? f28 pressure plate and run an f20 friction that way you'll have the pressure you need on the plate?
Not any firm plans at the moment.Quote:

Loving the progress Matt - good to see you putting your mark on it
Really like your choice of wheels - Very very rare !!!!!
Glad to see you updating on here - always struggle to find it on CS
I can't wait to see it again - It's years since I last had my grubby hands (covered in soft clean fluffy gloves) on it :)
Dave
havnt a clue what cr will be, never worked it out tbh, head and block have had a skim though, 2mm is a large gasket but thats what sbs supplies so im assuming it will be ok??Quote:

i have a helix paddle clutch for it already with hd pressure plate, if it wont do ill just get a better one lol
thanks,Quote:
