Thanks guys, I know I would regret it. Think that's why I haven't done it yet. Someone told me to stick it in storage and forget it for a few months to see what happens. No doubt is miss the old thing and pull it out again. Thinking about these wheels though. Want to put something totally original on it. Any body got any ideas?
But in the meantime I have this to build....

No mate, I bought an old std shell, stretched the rear arches so that I can fit the 10" wide comps on , put the cage in , sill stands too. Got carbon roof, spoiler, fibre wings, bonnet and tailgate. Glen, yes it's for track but it road legal too so my youngest boy can come out in it too on the roads. Going rwd at least 550 bhp but possibly 650 with sequential box.

had a wee problem with one of the studs/nuts on the manifold and got it sorted today, after that I put my heat reflective sheets on. I've heard people say it's a ball ache to do but that was a nightmare. Not the easiest to do with everything in place already but it will hopefully help with some of the heat transfer.

Sorted out the heat shield, didn't like the one I had before , to angular and sharp! This time I made it a bit smaller and rolled the edges.
Turbo in
Plumbed in, nearly got the Amal valve hoses the wrong way around!
Strut brace back on and clears the heat shield ok
Filter on, jubilee hose clip on the turbo side doesn't fit now as its a bigger turbo/hose oops.
Tomorrow prime the turbo, check it all out and go for a run !!

Got a v band on the centre section of the exhaust to get rid of my nasty old u clamp.
Then took it to the rollers to have a wee check up and make sure it's all good for going to the McRae event at knockhill tomorrow.
Did a nice comfortable 400bhp and the boys were happy with everything but advised me to have a look at my throttle position sensor and cold start valve. Will get them sorted as soon as. Now to play at knockhill tomorrow and hopefully don't wreck it. First time on track with the series 1.........

Changed my throttle position sensor
Idle control valve
And my dodgy breather hose
For one I got Roose to make me
Put my plates back on
And I added the Cosworth badge that I had made before I started building the car! I found it in the a box. The purists won't like it but I'm going to see how I like it for a while
Before
After
Now to go to the Scottish car show
