| The motor is, from what I know about it, the standard 1200cc, with MSD ignition setup (coil, digi box), custom intake manifold w/ a 4 barrel on top, with headers down to some glass packs. |

| Here are the twin Webers 40mm rebuilt by Jeff Taylor of JTS perfromance St Marys. It cost $525 including everything. The carbs wouldnt clean up with Autosol so a quick spray did the trick!! (I know its dodgey!!!) So far the total build including the car, carb rebuild, cage, front and rear suspension, and respray is around $3500. I estimate that I will have it will be finished for around $5000. I need a new seat as the old Stratos Ambulance seat will not conform to FIA and harnesses, baffled tank and front suspension and oil cooler will bring it up to that. If anyone has the above listed parts for sale please PM me. |

| Here are the front struts I bought from Dattodude...They are 200B with Tokiko inserts and adjustable lower collars. Currently it has std 1200 springs and std 200B GX brakes (with alloy Girlock Calipers), but once the car is together I will take it to John Taylor who will drill a new mounting hole in the x-member 45 degrees and 20mm from original, and also he will shorten the strut and bend it to give 4.5 degrees camber, as well as modify the front arm to give 10 degrees of castor. |

| Rear suspension is in and painted...this is a ute H165 with a 4.875 locker ....note the design of the spring which is alot softer at the rear to minimize/delete axel tramp on acceleration and also to stabilise the rear under heavy braking. Drums to remain... |

| Here are the tricky hand made springs developed and made by John Taylor at Pedders Penrith. Also included are the koni adjustables and nolathane bushes. Note that the factory rubber bushes are retained at the top of the front spring mounting point...with the rest nolathane. The whole setup is around $700 AUS and needs no sway or panhard to complement it. |
