How about 3 sets or publish the plans!

I will see if I can get a picture of Nathan's online. He mounted his similar to the sierra upright but I had been thinking about using the 3 holes that retain the brake dust plate.

I aint running a production line, lol :)

I found these pics of how one of the kit car manufacturers (can't remember which one) does it for their MX5 based 7. Probably going to do something similar:

During my IVA test, the radius ball thing was applied to my exhaust brackets and mounts (hence why the exhaust tip has to be rolled). With that in mind I think that bracket might struggle to pass. Obviously it depends on how thorough the IVA examiner is on the day.

Hi Deezee, I did have my doubts about it!
I'm hoping a little adjustment and/or some strategically placed trim might get it through!

Here's a pic of the NTS wingstays:

Wow, well done John. Almost enthused enough to get in the garage but I broke my right scapula a few days ago so my right arm doesn't really work well. :rolleyes:

Not the most exciting progress announcement, but I finally got around to making my tank straps.

Just used some thin steel strips and edge trim:

Hi skov any chance of a picture from the rear of the tank. When my straps are in place they won't follow the same line as the tank and I will have a gap. Also wondering how you fastened it to the bottom rail.

Oooh, the straps look very neat!
