Still not 100% finished yet, needs the seats bolting in and the fuel pump has just gone Sad .......sods law

Going to York as soon as its finished, hoping to get 14ish 1/4mile times

The conversion was loads of fun, never done anything this extreme before, started first time as well.... more or less a full car rebuild (not the engine tho, maybe next time Wink )

Glad you like it so far Very Happy

Thats an excellent job you've done there, well done, i like your attention to detail Very Happy them alloys are cracking, i went to try and get some for my Renault but unfortunatly they dont make them in 5 stud pattern, i think they suit your clio perfect, i like what you've done with the engine painting aswell.

(Mmmmm, now im thinking lol)

They came allready fitted to the williams engine, not removed them because there a pain to get out and put back in, tend to break.

62K out of a willy 3

Did the cambelt, clutch, dizzy etc etc, no cams or anything. In time maybe, still learning

But I have removed the powersteering set up, so this should free up some extra HP.
