Cheers, pretty pleased with how it's turned out

I looked at other cradles and didn't really fancy mounting on just one bolt either side, I no it's going to be a bit heavier, but I will lose the weight elsewhere if I can

Got it tacked up today and worked out my coolant pipes





And one of the pooch

Might have to remake to top ones to, just because I made them to the book jig that hadn't been up issued although the wishbone drawing had! Argh!!

Popped and got some bits off my mate who runs an ebay shop



Then got it back on the stands and the engine bolted back in
