Well the big day has been and gone for the dyno tune. The end result is in. 343.4@wheels, about 410-440@ flywheel. Car has more in it as when i got the engine it didn't have a cover over the lower section of the timeing belt. I haven't been able to find one as of yet (mind you haven't realy been looking) Once i find one we can set the timeing correctly and get around 30-50 more hp at the wheels.
Drives so much better now.

Nice result. Would be quite a handful in the little Lc. What boost where you running?

Diff brakeing was a blessing in disguise. Top arm was split 3/4 the way through. both sides.

Was going to say that the HP through the little banjo - no wonder it died !, but at least it was a bit stronger that the banjo. Will get on the HP range earlier then with a 3.55

Still finding the weak spots in the driveline. was watching the video and it seems like a shit load of fun ! nice

Used the old ones to make a quick jig them fixed the right hand side as it was not square on the bolt holes (just reversed the left one to do so. you can see the old ones in the jig and the nice new one are nice bling bling.

Well it is alive again. Just pisses me off bleading the brakes as it takes so bloody long. Took it for a drive and no noises and lsd works well. Well worth the money so far and the top ares bolted in without a hitch and there is no movement back and forth or side to side like before..
