2 week deadline to being on the road. Got my brother to weld up the manifold, the tig is problematic but this is good enough just to get on the road.






2 weeks to go, this all needs doing. Foregoing brake upgrade depending on if I can get them machined in time.

1. Finish exhaust, find a silence that can fit under the car etc.
2. Plug the air balance holes on the carbs (solves an issue with a deadzone at mid-high revs)
3. Throttle cable + choke cable
4. Install the ZX9R bike fuel pump, wire into original loom
5. Combine the ford focus and fiesta drive shafts on the lathe., weld them up
6. Modify the break servo bracket to clear the gearbox when installed
7. Add connectors to engine loom, install the ECU with 12v from the ignition switch.
8. Finish making the header tank, turn fittings on the lathe, weld etc
9. Coolant hoses, measure, cut & install
10. Fire it up, tune carbs roughly.
11. Pull the engine and gearbox out, finish any fabrication that needs doing inside the engine bay.
12. Engine and gearbox back in, final nut and bolt check. Drive it out onto the road and rag the living daylights out of it while also not going too fast on those dinky little xr brakes..

Paint will come when we are less busy, nothing wrong with epoxy primer until then lol
