westfield owners
I have a westy and i have 2 say it scares the shit out of me at any speed over 70ish. it is a 4.3 v8 build by je developments with a flat torque curve of 260 flt at 1400 rpm and 263 bhp.I have owned lots of fast cars but i cant get confident in this ,ive hade the car 1 year and still scares me. does any 1 know some 1 who can set all the geomatry of caster,camber tracking ect. it has the full wide track rear end so the front wheels are narrower. it also runs 16" rims up front and 17" on back with wider tyers, may be this not helping? Do other people have this prop. any help thanks,

Tabetha is right. Northampton Motorsport have great reputation and you wont go wrong there!
someone with arguably an even beter reputation is http://www.racecardoctor.com/
I've use him. Very impressed so far!

Defo Northampton Motorsport. Had my Westy setup there for track use when i owned it a couple of years ago. Completely transformed the car into a machine that was very very predictable & a joy to drive. It will be money worth spent 
Enjoy

Here's some pics of the 4 litre V8 one my friend built some while back. He worked as a mechanic for Nissan Motorsport at Milton Keynes so it was done to a high standard.
Chris Smith from Westfield wanted to buy it off him as a factory demo when he'd completed it
It was a smidge under 300bhp and weighed about 635kg.
It was very quick
On the alignment front, I've heard Tony Bones from Wheels in Motion is quite good as well on geometry settings
