I got it mocked up on the car and all was looking good all the gaps were the same them i went to the front of the car and looked back at it and it was on the piss big time and it must of been like this all its life sins it came out of the mold . it was down on the N/S by about 10mm so iv had to jack it up to get the sizes right and do some fiberglass work but im glad to say we are getting with it now it is back of the car as so of the work iv got to do needs to be done on the bench

fitting cam trigger & binning the dizzy gives you loads more room under the plenum & looks cool as well .
