    Welded in at the lowest point, this will take the wagner intercooler and flat floor.

          That gas lense is not for AC work!

          • Nice work, I'm getting pretty good at straight line stuff in ali, but I must admit I need more practice on circular stuff.

            Where did you get the big lens from? I've just ordered something similar from here

            https://www.arc-zone.com/

            Prices are pretty good but postage is expensive so I waited and ordered a few things.

            • you should try one of these too:-

              http://www.rapidwelding.com/dynamic/...2112HSFFX&zl=4

              The CK superflex cable is so light and flexible you almost don't know it's there, so much better than the std RTech cable

                Thanks Andy, i must admit my work where i can sit and use the work bench is much better. I am now proficient in upside down back to front and left handed welding. Chassis fabrication is at every angle!

                I've mentally just spent £200

                This is the cups i brought

                I've been putting off getting a CK torch i brought a speedglas instead. I must say its made a massive difference i would highly recommend one. Rapid weld deliver to my friend i get my gas from maybe i will stick one on order. Is that the one you have?

                • I havn't got that one yet, they do a 150amp version, which for some reason is only about £60. I bought that one just to see if it was any good, now I know how good they are I'll get the full 200amp one

                  • I've ordered one. Lets see how i get on with that. Really need a water cooler as well, But i dont do enough AC work to really warrant it.

                    • So dampers were sorted on the front and rear again.

                      Had to remove the dead stroke and machine my own cylinder tops with a O ring to get them to work with the new lower COG of the front

                      They are now rocking Ohlins internals.

                      Springs have been changed i have gone up front and rear.











                      Note. Eibach springs

                                Don't buy Ast!

                                Your have to sort them and Dyno them your self. Buy Ohlins.

                                A shameless plug for Jay @DMD had to drop this out with the dampers. 6 bolts and its straight to the floor. Off to be powder coated white and the diff pre load re shimmed as its worked its way loose.
