So more progress has been made rust is being removed and fresh metal is going in also we decided on some custom wide arches to improve the body lines. Also another marmite modification is we are having the seams removed so it will be smooth all over not expecting everyone to like it but it will be built our way to our taste

Good project!
As you might have seen I´m doing something similar.

Is that an inner wheel arc you have mounted on the outside, or what is it? (I´m lookong for something like that)

Hey mate thanks for dropping a comment that was the initial idea yes however it simply wasn't doing what we wanted it to so now we have gone a totally different route

Remember---only smooth for the inlet manifold, but polished for the exhaust

Yes so the head has already been done by a race engineer the inlet manifold had heaps off rough casting marks on the inside which I want to smooth down

 

[Mynameisnavo]

Had some spare time today so cracked on with the engine all closed up and ready to test couldn't resist putting the exhaust and alloy rocker cover in place just to see what they look like

Looks great! What's the spring round the silencer?

That is a sexy exhaust. I’d love to get one of those, but the shipping costs half what the system does. Oof.
