More progress today,
When I got to the workshop today Steve was cutting out card templates out for me (thank you)

Spent the rest of the day cutting sheet and welding in the new tunnel / firewall.

Needs cleaning up and painting but really pleased how it came out and happy with the way it tied in that all the strength is back in from all the cutting.
All the best Clive

Mr Spiller

Bit more progress.

Steve has now machined all the plates and housings to convert from FD to 3 Rotor plus two bored and reamed two holes for the big 1/2" though bolts to stop twist.

Picked up the modified FD Koyo Rad and the front cover,  that now has drains for the Turbo and for the catch can drain.

Looking fab, all coming together now.
That pdm 15 is cool piece of kit. Had a good google onit.
No need for relays and fuses, very tidy.

We now have the new 3 Rotor in the bay with the Mustang Dog box bolted up behind. Many thanks to Jim who drove down again from Wakefeild and has spent two solid days on wiring in the new Link ECU and PDM

Well with Huge herculean efforts to help me Jim who has virtually lived down here for the last two weeks to re-wire the whole car and the brilliant machine work from Steve (DS Engineering)to fit the big Hemi Fly by wire Throttle body etc plus assistance from Pip (PG Auto) who will be mapping he car, we are all nearly there after seven months of hard work. Hopefully tomorrow the car will be fired up, then off up to Pips for Mapping. Still a lot of work to do, but I am confident enough that I have booked a full day test at Brands for the 21st and also paid to race on the 22nd and 23rd in the Brands CTRC Thunder Saloon Championship that will be streamed live on the BARC YouTube Channel 

All the best Clive
