trial fitting the engine

Put the engine back in to test that the brake and clutch master cylinders still fit. It is a tight fit around the brake (1mm) but should be enough clearance. Not in these pictures.

I couldn't help myself just had to sit in it and make engine noises. Some one has to ensure that everything is a good fit and it will be comfortable to drive. :-)

I need work out the design of the air box and where to run the clutch line. I am thinking under the gearbox.

Brake lines done - almost

After a month of slow going I have finally painted the diff, re-inserted it into the frame and run the brake lines. As can be seen from the pics i still need to get the flexable hose made up to run between all the moving joints.

The clutch and brake are now plumbed up and things seem to work when the pedals are pushed. eg: The master cylinders fill the lines with air.
