Unless things go wrong at work tomorrow I'll be spending Monday evening welding the missing parts into my chassis. Basically I'll just be adding everything that is in the book that isn't already attached...

Has anyone got tips for anything they've welded in that WASN'T in the book?

I'm wondering if its worth sticking a few 3mm plate sections on the inside of the to chassis rails in the engine bay just in case i need to mount brackets later on, i.e. for the horn, the coil, the coolant header tank, etc, etc?

At the moment i have no idea where these parts (and probably others) will be mounted...

Horn brackets, air filter bracket, lower bracket for nosecone?, exhaust brackets, driveshaft catcher/hoop (see pic), Oil cooler bracket and water hose brackets

Catches the shaft in case it comes off :D
