How did she go in her new clothes? Ran ok?

She ran pretty well, weather was a bit sh%$. We did have a bit of shuddering under braking which I think is a alignment issue and it was losing a bit of fuel pressure at the end of the straight, which we think is due to the standard lines leading from the tank to the fuel pump. So will fix those.

Videos are not far away

Here's some pics to tide you over

There was a lot of positive attention and I got interviewed by the TV station and the car was videoed but don't think it made it to broadcast.

My laps results are here Event results - details - MYLAPS Sports Timing look under HMC and Pre 78 Saloons - car 77

Top video mate!!!

Nice little gain too!!

Haven't posted for a while but she is still running sweet and has seen a bit more track action.

 

Upgraded the rear brakes with discs as well but managed to snap an axle launching off the start line.  Lucky we had gone to disc as it held the wheel on, snapped a shock but no major damage.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also upgraded the LSD with a Quaife version. and repainted suspension new bearings/crosses etc

Also Got in a Harada manifold from Japan and new 48mm triple Webbers, fitted with a HPC coated rocker cover - sounds even  nastier now and has a lot more throttle response, peak power much the same.
