Well proto #1 has been made of the RCM style inner wing insert. Its a slightly different style than the RCM one. Its deeper and will take a larger dia cold air feed, mine will be 83mm fed direct from one of the foglamp covers.
This proto is to my original drawing and does not yet have a feed to it.
I'll fit this first just as an insert and then make any changes that are required before adding the air feed in the bottom. Huge thanks to Ian for knocking this up double quick. I only gave him a drawing yesterday
Also another bracket that needs making... "can ya guess what it is yet?"

Haha, not quite. I'll post more on that bracket later. As for the wing insert, yes we vac formed it. Its from 3mm abs plastic so is very strong but still offers some flex if need be. Most of all it weighs piss all and is dead easy to work with.
This one is just a proto at the mo Stu so we can see how it fits and where improvements may need to be made.
All fun stuff eh

Double quick turnaround from Ben @ Hel Performance ensured my hose and fittings arrived for the weekend. The ones in blue are only available in blue at the moment so they will more than likely be taken to be re anodized in black to match the rest.
Oh remember that bracket?
Well now my regulator has a home

Ive dummy fitted the proto wing insert today and over all im absolutely delighted with it. It does need some slight alterations, one of which will be to make it taller by approx 20mm. But even just resting it in there with tape you can see it will fit excellent once finished.
I think this is the most exciting thing on the car in ages. Once proto #2 is made we can get the air feed right.
What do you think guys?

Made up most of the fuel lines for the parallel setup tonight. The small line im not happy with which will be redone (thats why its not Nomex covered).
Amazing how time consuming making these up is.
I was dead set on getting the blue fittings anodised black but now im 50:50.
All requires clipping in place and tightening up but i think looks alright at the mo. Once these are complete. The engine is nearing completion and wont be far away from being dropped back into the car.
Exciting stuff eh?
