Well spent some of the day before the wind got up putting more bits back together, forgot where most things went. Nearly ready for the front clam to go back on I put a horn cutout switch on to save me embarresment on those corners, mainly because I put a fog horn on it

Love that mod Nick, I have lost count of the number of times I hit the hooter on a corner. I have frightened the bejeesus out of many a poor unsuspecting Lotus on track days and they don't believe you back in the paddock.

[NickB787]

OK nearly there, back end is all done, just front clam to go on now, mot, geo (340r from my local chap to save time) Tax and insurance gave it good run, I am convinced I need to increase the pulley size as I am hearing s/c noise don't like that. need to borrow Techies noise meter and techieboy to hold it

yeah increase your pulley size, i suggest 3.6 good on you for getting it sorted, whats left to do at the front end? i may finish mine off thursday/friday so i can drive it the week in the new year booked those trackdays yet

[NickB787]

3.6 is just bait big Joe just the clam on, splitter to fit, Robins and headlights back in. don't push your joe till you get the map customised you have put too much into your build, when you booked into Courtenays? Yep booked snets in feb

[The Batman]

indeed! oh and vockstar i got a turbo timer so can set the water pump up on that so it stays on and then turns off after a while no need to leave the engine running
