Also been working on the throttle inlet design for @Steve (sdh2903). Nearly sorted mate.

I thought that too but that’s what’s on it. I will see how I go and may change them at a later date. Not sure yet.

That the 3l, thinking of upsizing to one myself.

No. Its only the 2L. I did look at the 3 but decided this was more than enough for how I drive.

Remembering just how nice it is to get away.

Blyton last year I managed to bend a WT wishbone.   I can’t say I’d know where it got bent.    The oval tubes are horizontally strong but vertically Weak.

So I made some new ones.   I took one of the original standard track ones and made a jig with the correct width..   

 

then made the flip side and made it so the wide track fitted.     Interesting was the “straight” wide track was not straight for the jig.    And had been trouble to fit in the car.  

 

about half a hole out on a rigid hard shaft.   
 

I’d bought some Locost laser cut plates as it was cheaper than the minimum set up cost of most places.   

I was going to do some fancy stress analysis but in the end just used the same size tube as the original short wishbones. 
 

Below is the comparison between the new heavy weight and the old light weight version.

 

 

500g heavier!    Each! but hopefully won’t bend quite so easy!

I’m not sure it’s a good idea when you can see the MOT bay from your office window.    And hear the Reving needed to get in in and out of the rollers.    #Expectant_Father
