Sound deadning removal looks like the most rubbishest job ever.
Look forward to seeing this progress, seems as though you are doing sterling work already.

Cage to strut towers should be nice, but thats not what I want to do with the bolt-in cage. Imo it should be a welded cage. Maybe I still go for a full welded cage, but it is a matter of money.. All the FIA-spec things are massive expensive. We will see

Ok.
If you go with bolt in worth plating bulkhead and brace from bulkhead plate to strut tower.
Take it you'll be on gravel???

Well, we dont have gravel rally's over here. So the carsetup will be based on tarmac.
Some rally's are partly off-road, but not in the sprint-championship I will be driving the first year(s).

Update time!
Car had damage, so a second hand front of a 340 had find a new place. Derusted it ofcourse.
I wanted to remove the batteryholder, started to grind and found out a old leak made it all gone. Even a part of the chassis. Welded al new in place (No battery holder, batt is gonna take place in the interior)
Still figuring out how to place steeringcolum and cage underneath dash
cage
cage all fia spec.
Rear reinforsement, for the coilovers and stiffness.
Plates for seats. I want to sit low as possible, so this will be the best solution. Also fia spec.
Building a nice head. Its gonna have a nice compressionratio.
Old vs new (big) intakevalves.
Solid lifters, ready for huge rpm....
See ya next time.
