You will need to make a smaller battery enclosure.

Are you not worried about it shorting out in that metal case though?

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

im going to glue some thin rubber matting in there to stop it arcing :)
will also help it stop slipping about too

now have some adjustable bottom arms and heavy duty adjustable tie bars to go on......time to get some negative camber on the go
ive also got some different spax front coilovers to go on to get the front end a bit more down as i cant get it low enough on the ones i have

adjustable bottom arms and tie rods, time to get some negative camper on the go



expansion bottle mounted + got a new wiring loom now too.
will have ignition and power as of tomoz hopefully!

ive now had a custom expansion tank made from aluminium which is half the size of the big eye sore in the corner
im just waiting for the expansion tank to be finished off then ill get hoses made up and coolant system plumbed up.
ive also got one of nics custom plenums on the way too.

been having trouble with the metro radiator trying to get hoses
that fit going from mini size to next some up.
metro one is now ditched.
i now have a brand new one which is exactly same size as metro one but off a rover 100 as the hose sizes are the same as a mini.
expansion tank should be made this week too.

the cars broken before I've even started lol.
engine is coming out the car tomoz as the flywheel doesn't seem to be sitting properly which means the starter is just locking on the fly and jamming the engine.....happy days

Can't you just whip the flywheel off in situ? Easy enough job with a removable front end.

Are you using the right starter motor with the right ring gear?

1/4mile in 13.2sec @ 111 terminal on 15psi

yeah my fly is the 129 teeth one which means it should be early type starter?
the flywheel is sitting to far in and because of that the starter motor when engaging is locking the engine.
if i spacer the starter with some washers it then turns over....

I thought the 129 tooth flywheel needed the pre-engaged starter? the newer one?

I've tried both starters and neither work lol.
I've compared it to my mates mini and my fly is sitting to far towards the block compared to my friends.
