Thats the one that broke.
Yeah thanks for reminding me Dave...
Those aluminium rods were a bad idea...no history and had been extensively lightened.... but I was seduced by their lightness!! They broke....
Anyway it's still 72x94 as before just with some steel rods and abit more compression as I could close up the deck as ali rods need more room to expand.
Martin...The 65mm crank will be used for the cars next engine.....eventually....
Fabs....We made a windscreen...I say we, I mean Pete did hours of cutting and filing (his favourite pastime) then when I moved it dissappeared!! So this happy accident has made the car all the more thrilling to drive and halved the frontal area I reckon....it may get a torneau cover,it may get a hood and the screen remade (if it doesn't turn up)....It'll probably get left as is....112mph felt like 150!! more bang for ya buck!!
Brian...The rear suspension is 4 link with some period Koni coil overs....but for the 600 a simple ladder bar set up would work great. The std fiat rear end is good for fiats and massive wheelies but you'll need a massive wheelie bar ala Big Pete's 600 to make it off the line quick....so simple ladder bar and coil over adj dampers etc (rear spring rate depends on power and overall weight etc etc).
I just need to drive it some more!!!
