XUD powered kit car

[Xud Missile]

I've just had the car back on it's wheels and the ground clearance can't be reduced as the slave cylinder is so low. It's okay anyway, it was worse with my pinto and I never had issues That said, if I did change to a steel ph1 sump then I could make a sump guard that is level with the bellhousing/slave cylinder. That could be a job to look at doing when it's on the road.

Since last update I've had all the brakes in bits, the pistons had all stuck due to long term storage in a damp garage. Compressed air had them out in no time, all cleaned up and reassembled now. Today I went to the scrapyard and got an alternator which will clear the chassis nicely by about an inch.

Turbo back on to check clearance against steering column, it clears by a good 10mm.


Sunny day so pushed the car around outside with my friend Sam making car noises
