I don't think it "should" be that much longer.......engine is ready now, just got to bolt the gearbox back on.........touch wood the gearbox is ok
I'm just touching up on a few rust spots and then i'll start cracking on with the carbon fibre, wiring and dash. Once thats done.......engine and box in........all done
Sounds simple enough but i'm sure to have a few set backs

Thanks Guys Not long now..... i hope
Dave, i've decided not to make the dash out of carbon fibre. The carbon i had wasn't the right texture as its single strand carbon rather than the normal (better looking) double weaved.
