jump forward a couple of months , very busy ,mostly scrounging up those elusive $$, but fortunatly ,project no bling on this thing is slowly taking shape ,the plan is to have it ready for Gairdner in 07 and then if all goes well ,join the Aussie asalt to. Bonneville 08.
a snippet on the project ,1350 APS/BF ,turbo /nitrous with a twist of somethins a little different ,my main thrust has been to minimise the frontal area ,which needed a rethink on the whole layout , I have successeded in lowering aprox 100mm ( 4 ") by changing the frame ,and sub frame geometry ,raking and altering the suspension ,as well as increasing the wheel base ,now at 78" ,at the rear I have fabricated a lengthened chrome molly underbraced swingarm ,attached to the swingarm are the mounts for the lead ballast and fitted inbetween the swingarm the coolant for the air/water intercooler , altered the subframe to accept a new fuel tank (holds 16ltrs alky) and room for the 5lb nitrous bottle ,both of which fit under the tail section
