Haha allright..

And daylight..

Pedalbox

Figured a little bit out the seat position. Not sure yet, think I'm not close enough to the steering wheel, while pedals are too close. And steering wheel should be lower preferrable.

Extinguisher system, two nozzles in engine compartment, two in interior.

i was thinking about lowering the steering wheel too, can quite easaly be done with altering the bracket that bolts the column to the chassis; preferably a unit made from scratch
and if you do that, make sure you order a snap-off boss too, or you'll never be able to get in/out of the car :lol:

i see you're going for a custom clockset? :D

Well, I already realised yesterday lol :lol:

Nope, I've a very nice Smiths instrument panel, with rev counter too. It's important to NOT make too many custom shizzle, otherwise the car would be ready in the year 3000 :]

Offcourse it fits. My name is Frits.. Damn, that was too easy :lol:

No, i've measured out everything very secure, so it does fit. Even the heater radiator and all stuff can stay. Only a radio doesn't fit anymore.

who needs a radio if you have 4 throttle bodies under the bonnet :D

Hehe. Ear plugs will be a better idea. No radio, its weight.

I will plumb in a stock injection manifold to start with. Need to get the car on the streets, so throttle bodies will be part 2. But gives me time to build a decent engine while the car is running.
