Well done on solving the new column fitment
cheers

good idea andy, i didnt think about that. Its turning into abit of a head scratching mission this! Does the scuttle sit ontop of TR2? If so would it be possible to angle the top of the end of the new rail in and remove a small section of the bottom of the scuttle to fit around it if you know what i mean?
As for alternator clearance, the end of the upper column now sits closer to the outside of the car, to enable the minimum 10 degrees angle to please the iva man regarding column deflection, this may or may not give adaquate clearance, but since the motor hasnt been trial fittedd yet it will be a suck it and see
