Not much done over the last few weeks, only time to plan and take a few photos.
Here's just how close the whole fit is.

Off side chassis turret



Near side chassis turret, the whole alternator bracket had to be re-done and a smaller belt fitted



The crank sensor just clears the front chassis cross member.



Steering linkage just clears the exhaust and engine mount.



The sump is about 10mm clear of the re-shaped (not altered) chassis



Finally I had to nick-out a small "V" on the chassis edge to clear the gear box flange. On the next conversion I will avoid this but fitting the engine further forward by 30mm.



The only major job to do is to re-make the exhaust down pipe to clear the engine mount and chassis, I'll do this by routing the pipe forward then sweeping it back.

Dash will be in the centre console, just an ignition switch, light switch, temp gauge, rev gauge, and GPS speedo.
All done minimal racing style #

Anyone got any bucket seats for sale??
