How are you mounting this Cossie engine? No tunnel or am I getting the wrong end of the stick?

Looks good still!

Cool, nice cage.. Is that a 'custom cages' cage?


Also, Like Andy points out, How are you fitting the Cossie engine? Or is it a Cossie managed CVH?

Really nice looking project mate, Cage looks awesome.

But if you are going to put a cossie motor and running gear in then you've droped a bollock with the rear strut turrets as they need to be moved back

Nice project will be good when finished.

One question though, why go for a big heavy Yb up front? Instead of relatively light a Zetec Turbo that would be better for handling?

nice project mate, hope you get a good diff though cos that video looks like one wheeling city
also is it just me or does all that cage look really heavy, theres a lot of pipe gone into it, roughly, how much lenght of pipe did you use?

good work
