If you look above you see how far the tunnell is back gives you a idea how far back the engine is going

How is the carbon being joined to the steel? Bonding or small brackets?

Hello Andy

Great project, I like all the carbon bits.

As a matter of interest, how much weight alone is saved using the carbon roof skin?

keep up the good work

kenny.
