Are you wanting to sell her as a whole or would you be willing to sell parts?

Cheers Dan

Ideally as rolling shell, I'm just looking for interest in both (Whole and as parts)..

i'd be interested in most of the parts, coilovers, brakes wheels ect. i just brought ali's 8v turbo... love it but it don't stop to good lol. has the shell it's self been modified, to fit larger turbo or anything?

haha, if you make enough power to require a turbo bigger than the one this shell was running then you'll need to consider a more radical redesign like the one that has prompted the sale of this

- best of luck, and I'd love to see another 300 which has to have a slipping clutch to prevent total destruction of all that is between the bellhousing and wheels

if you do want big power 400+ what do you have to do use engine and box from 740? if thats a dumb question sorry but i really don't know, but i'd love 400ish also who do i talk to to do it rt mechanics have the massive bhp t5????

oh yeah forgot still need to know if you modded your shell in anyway?

At the minute it looks like build out of this shell is going forward..
Std running gear takes (or did..) between 300-350 BHP, any more (arround 17 psi on Mine) and it's either clutch, diff or main shaft that want's to go different way to rest of the car..

My way to cure this is to cut floor open and go for gearbox, prop,diff set up..
Cosworth T5 are strong and can be used with adaptor plate
TVR box is based on T5 and even stronger..

Are you still building it up in a 300 or something else?

oh right, that sounds a good way to go, i know you can get really strong boxes for the cossies, not sure on prices though! but for what i want a standard t5 would handle it. what do you do about the diff though guess the ratios are not the same wouldn't that mess up the gear ratios?

Cossie diff would make the most sense, or a quaife. The 300 diff is no good for much more than standard power, indeed you could break one with a 1.4 if you tried. Welding it would help, but if you go to the trouble of welding in a new trans tunnel you might as well fit a proper diff too.

thats true but i WAS friends with a guy who would kill a cossie diff in weeks, that car was 400bhp ish, but it depends what your goona do with it i guess
