As promised, here are some pictures....

I started by buying a conversion kit but that didn't work so I started again and built my own subframe. 18 months later it's on full reg now and I can drive it. Here's some pictures of the engine bay. If I'd given the engine a coat of paint the bonnet wouldn't have shut!

Nothing unusual here.....

Pitty about the poor chassis :p

But seriously how does it handle?
Did you modify the original subframe or buy a new one?

[dynosaur]

his take off speed & power can challange Ferarri . :p

based on power & weight ratio.
