Cool Craig, bet you're fizzing. You were talking about flywheels recently, looks like you've already got a lightened one?

I worked on the car again tonight and fitted a new heavy duty clutch and pressure plate and also threw the old air filter elements out and fitted new k&n's until I fit a ITG/pipercross foam filter or cold air box.

I couldn't stand looking at it on the engine stand so threw it in the hole

Going to fit gearbox and radiator tomorrow

Didn't get much done over weekend as im building a fence at home but I done a wee bit tonight.

I replaced the old slave on the gearbox and the old rubber line and put a new braided line on.

I also didn't really like the alternator bracket so I made a nice shiney one from stainess steel and left and right had thread molly rod ends. just had to add a longer bolt and spacer to make the adjuster line up with alt mount hole.
