No chance.... How ever it looks at Autosport show will be pretty much how it goes to Rockingham. I'm hoping I might have the Tarox brakes on by then though.
The engine will be a bit of long process, planning a bullet proof zetec turbo conversion with the emphasis on maximum drive-ability rather than power figures. Will also be building the gearbox properly as well. Lucy and me are currently in the process of buying a much bigger house with a garage so I'm trying to cram as much spending in before I have to stop and spend it on new sofa's!
If I can complete the engine build in 18 months then I'l be happy with that, the car will remain with the 1700 in the meantime... not worth ripping it apart until I really have to and I still want to use it.
