Been to work today and took engine out. Then strip the bay done and re-paint it black
Also ordered spoox rear wishbone mounts and spoox hose set, and now have the S2 type BakerBM ECU mount as I thought it would have been S1 but its actually S2 type

Got a phone call from Spoox to say the parts I ordered had arrived so went and collected them,
Lower and top coolant hoses, and the 2 heater matrix ones. Also the Spoox/Vibra Technics rear wishbone mounts.
Had some random steel frame at work, so decided to cut it up and make a frame to move the car around when the wheels/suspension etc is off.
Started with this,
During,
Frame,
Going to go finish it off tomorrow. Just need the weld to legs on one end, then 2 long bars across the bottom, mount the wheels on, lick of paint and will be finished!

Good stuff. Just doing my bit to keep you motivated.
Wish I had access to a garage like yours.

Engine bay now stripped down ready for prep
New inner wings to be fitted
New Nissens rad and a new slimline fan
The parts left to buy are a 16v manifold and get a 16v conversion loom sorted.
Get it all finished for march time, ready for Cadwell Park on 25th April hopefully.
