Final fitting now done thanks to Mike, Tricky, Jason, JJ, Nige and Dan.
Today was the intervention that I had been forced to attend by Tricky. The lads had made it quite clear that I would get duffed up if I didnt get the front legs of the roll cage welded in onto spreader plates.
My Truck is broken so Mike (Kiwicar) came over and hauled the trailer over to Trickys workshop.
So while Jason got busy with the welding I got busy with the Zoomies while Mike and the others helped out in various ways on the car.
I made sure that everyone had pasties and mars bars and drinks
I should have the truck back from repair on Monday so Monday will see me on the local industrial estate giving the engine some revs on the pipes which are now port matched to the heads. The previous video was with the header flanges at stock size of about 22mm wide port size. My heads are 28mm wide on the exhaust ports + a few mm higher as well.
I'm going to get a mate to laser cut some frames to go around the holes in the bonnet out of stainless steel to tidy them up.
As you can see in the picture, the weather proofing for the pipes has also been completed
