Haha. To be my first time driving a right hand drive, i was satisfied. But its konvertet to N/A somit goes like a fiat. It maybe got 200 hp and it got a diff from a auto.. That mean higher ratio. I did also have wrong sparkplugs so it was cutting between 4-6 000 rpm, that realy sucks when you try to get smooth lines.

But anyways, i did deliver som parts for galvanizing (engine bay, rollcage screws and door locks(?)) on thuesday:


They are on its way now.
This is before pictures:






And here is some pictures of my rollcage, anyone who have seen it before?














It cost me over 100$ so i hope it wil be nice

Best regards

Could you post a pic of the wide rear on the driver side? (gas tank side) I'm wondering if you modified the gas tank door any to make it flush.

Although I have never even worked on a brake boost/ MC from the looks of it flip the silver part around and it should be good. It is much more likely that the sealing side meets the gasket than the flat metal side

Your hood looks to be made by Dreamworks-racing.

I like the hood very much. I would by a RE N1 to trade you if you didnt live in Norway.

I did put in the engine today. I was suposed to get som help, but the help never showed up so i did it alone. (I did not think it would go, but i worked out fine)

here are some pictures



I was sceptical about the BILTEMA lifter, but i did not break this time eather.



They were so ugly so i gave them a round with paint. I hope it wil not effect the oil temp.


Here is a happy mechanic.




Now its in.

Hehe. I dont rock but yes it worked out fine alone.
No scratches or anything.

Only thing I hate now, is that i didnt paint the engine in the same colour of the car and polish all the alu. But then i got more to do next year.
