The problem I foresee is getting the power down, I might have to re-make the rear wheel arches to fit wider tyres (currently only 205's!).

Bit of an update, most of the fuel and oil hoses are finished now :rockon: although it is a little tight in the engine bay now... solid engine mounts might be needed!

great project

It should fly if you can get similar or more power than mine makes with it being 250kg lighter :wink:
even 230bhp would be the same as mine with 300bhp!
