    Have you used one Mick? from what I can find they are stock depth just have the kickout to increase capacity. would be interesting to know if the oil pickup needs shortening and how much clearance it saves you if they are shallower
    Fair point I'm not sure if it's lower. I've got one in the shed for a rainy day. I might measure it.

    stretched some new tyres on today, and lowered it a bit more. gonna give it a service tomorrow, and tackle any electrical gremlins which have come back. then brakes next week, and cooling system and a new cam the following week hopefully! gonna give the carby a tune and bump up the timing a tad to give it a bit more go camber plates are also in the picture for the next month as well. EDIT: oh and a small front lip!!! to complete the exterior.

    gonna go lower once i knock up a bashplate, interested to see what people have done to protect the sump?

    oh no way, small world! yeah that's a mate from work who's pretty much a mechanics wizard, he came to give me a hand today so that i wasn't spending all day on the car haha. i know what you mean about the taking forever thing, i've had this for the best part of a year and i just keep running out of $$$!

    Replaced steering rack boots and CV outer boots today, had to find the bloody weird multihead torx bit for the cvs on a sunday - streets auto & parts arana hills had it though ! gave it an oil & filter change and some new plugs, was gonna do some work on the electrics but i'll leave that for another weekend haha. was getting too dang hot in the garage so i took it down to the carwash and gave it a well earned scrub to cool off:



    annddd under the car cover it goes for another week
