Thanks chaps. Hoping it will be a nice comfy drive to the track where I can drive it like a loon and then cruise home again.

Andy, you'll never be able to excert enough force into the clutch with a pillar drill. I tried the same. My pillar drill started to deflect and still not throw out the clutch even a little, and that was with a standard clutch. You'll be struggling to exert more than 100kg never mind 200 or so with this method. On 26th Oct, 2004 TurboDave16v said:

Right. I couldn't exert enough pressure with the pedal either. It went about half way then went rock hard.

Rust on the spring and the ring on the flywheel making it bind. I'm going to clean it up later and give it another go. Still needs some material of the lugs though as the spring is nothing like flat. On 11th Feb, 2015 robert said:

Plenty of little jobs left, but certainly getting there. Not going to make Avon with it, but hoping to have it on the road for August. On 11th Feb, 2015 robert said:

Close but no cigar. Had a visit from our illustrious swarf maker. Took him 15 seconds to spot it... On 11th Feb, 2015 robert said:
