Hi Maz, glad you liked the thread, it's been a long build!! The content has been prolonged by LXSS350 telling me to lose weight and eat cake, LOL.
In regards to the rear, the whole assembly was made by Race Products. Give them a call, talk to Mark. They are really good at what the do, the proof is in the diff they knocked up for me.
If you need any specific photos, let me know and I will get them for you.
Cheers,
Craig

Need to move it along a bit now as the Motec bloke will need the car soon for wiring it up.
Got the engine and gear box back it and wheels on. The offset is spot on, looks tough.



The engine bay looks good. Can't go any further back even if I wanted to.

Cheers Gene and Dave, yeah there's a bit of room up front of the engine. Want to have enough room for a CVR electric water pump and my radiator.

Very nice. The car that is, any idea when you will be trying for rego?

I got the impression its a race car could be wrong though

looks better than a lot of the road registered stuff around.

She'll be a race car Greg, the good staff at Welshpool won't even get a look at her. It is being built for Improved Production, hence the IPRA on the heading of the topic.
Thanks for the compliment, I appreciate it. The pictures make the paint look good, but it will be ok for a race car.
