thanks again gary, its a 1996, but i dont have they inlet manifold etc for it so wont yet be able to work out heights whilst fitting the bonnet, but to be fair im not at that stage, but you know how it is when your mind starts wandering and trying to work far in advance

Yes I know so just to throw fuel on the fire are the plans to go std inlet or throttle bodies ????
Not that I would tempt you
I have a supercharger on her and a set of throttle bodies for a winter upgrade as well .......

[chris_smith]

the plan is to build her standard and get the iva pass, then I can start playing

probably turbo in the future, but I have to keep prompting myself to stop thinking of after iva and concentrate on passing it first.

im at a great advantage as I passed my stuart taylor some years ago so I have that experience on my side, but it was built with a crossflow, which literally can be squeezed into a shoe box lol

[garyt]

Iva passed with supercharger on emissions spot on and a very enthusiastic tester when he drove it and anyway nowt wrong with planning ahead
