Do you know if the 3B cambelt cover can be used with the ABY cam pulley?
I want to use the hall sensor there and get rid of dizzy.

[Pirvu Eugen]

On the way to the body shop!
Sorry the bad quality pictures!

[Pirvu Eugen]

About the thread with the differences between s2forum and others!!!
You can see here that...even in this stage...the Audi coupe is faster than an Mini Cooper!

[Pirvu Eugen]

At the shop!
Today i start cleaning the body and cut the unnecessary metal from it.

[DJones]

Great work and will be well worth the effort, It will come back like a new shell....

Obviously you have to cut the back cover.



Also the extra dish of the pulley means the front cover fouls on the centre of the spokes of the pulley.
I'm working on a way of modifying the original cover, so that it still serves its purpose. I've got an old broken one to practice on, as the plastic cover is NLA.

I have done the test....i saw that the 3B cover dont fit...i will have to modify..indeed..the cover...because is a street car...i think is important to have that in place.
Thank You!

Little update! The guy from the body shop called me...(i am out from town till tomorrow)...that the body has been checked and straightened to the correct dimensions....i am very happy. The next step is the body pannels fitting.
