Above is a good shot of the watts link and rear coil over. We are probably going to change the Griggs design slightly. The upper and lower mounting is in single shear. Which isn't a problem if the mounting bolts remain tight, however if they loosen then because the bolts are in single shear (only supported on one side) the bending moment may be enough to cause the bolt to bend, fatigue and break. If the bolt is mounted in double shear (such as where the Watts link connects to the frame) the bending moment can be eliminated. If the bolt were to loosen it would not bend and fatigue.
The cage is coming along. It has been tied into all the suspension pick up points to increase rigidity.
The picture above and to the left is the first attempt at positioning the engine. The turbos stuck too far out to the sides. They were modified to fit in between the shock towers. On the right is how the engine will look once installed.
To get the turbos to fit between the sock towers they were cut just after the collector. Then the part that was cut off was swapped with the one from the other turbo side. This brought the turbos up and toward the centre of the car.
A shot of the front. The inside of the doors have been cut out and the NASCAR style side bars installed for driver protection.
