    Passenger Side skid plate is almost there, Bob is doing a great job... It serves a purpose and adds a little extra strength.. Chassis is all seam welded too..A little extra plate is going on it to cover over the old Jacking point, Just to tidy it up a bit..

    Exhaust tunnel finished to accommodate a stainless 2 1/2" system might have to buy some heat reflective material to go on the tunnel.
    can anyone recommend any???? PLEASE....

    I'm not hating here mate ... BUT if the cars YB powered it isn't going to be getting used for rallying so why the need for a maaaaasive sump guard :/ just masses of extra weight isnt it??

    John, I get your point but its only going to be used for the odd track day/ fair weather road use however where I live theres hundreds of speed bumps in every other street so I'd rather cope with the extra aluminium weight to protect my investment in the engine..

    Mocking up the exhaust system going with one oval back box side entry so its easier to angle towards the tunnel
    It will be a full stainless system though..
