I have now been able to return to my BMW powered Ribble Pilot project and thought I would up-date the thread,
Only to realize I actualy never started one
So if your interested please read on.
Standard Triumph herald chassis and running gear with standard Ribble Pilot kit.
The brakes will be up-rated with type 16 calipers and remote servo.
The power plant donor was 1996 BMW Series 3, 1.8i, fitted with a hot cam so making around 120bhp.
Note the E30 standard sump has been removed as it's too big to fit between the chassis rails. This is to be replaced with a smaller E36 sump.
Serious cutting of the original baukhead.
Then just lower every thing into place.
Snug fit.
Now all I have to do is stop it jumping out
