ricp – Welcome to the forum.

I’d suggest your contact DaveCymru who is also based in Somerset.

He has built both a Sammio:

And a Miglia (which he still has):

So he knows a thing or two about kit building.

Phil9 had a very nice straight 6 arrangement in his Sammio.



These is also a Miglia that has just gone to Kong Kong with a 2500cc TC engine in it.

Based on reading Scottie’s A352 build thread, I know access to the engine is tight.

So it might be worth considering converting the A352 to a flip up front, similar to Tribute’s D Type kit.



I know it is not a Tribute, but I made a set of very simple ‘scissor’ hinges for mine, which lowered the pivot point.
( Excuse the work-in-progress photos with the wrong bolts in. )





And I love the end result, even though it is just a Spitfire 1500 engine.



Hope that helps and good luck, Paul.
