Ive met your old man a few times now, and living in Kent means that European events are as easy to get to as UK ones, so no doubt you'll see it in the flesh/metal next year
No doubt I will then. Already liked the footage from Ciney in your Soarer

iv checked the thor kit out now - have you purchased the hydraulic release bearing yet? - did you get it from them or find someone else? it looks like a TILTON item . . . and the adapter plate to fit it?

if you want i can send you some pics of a RX7 relaese fork its pretty much a free standing unit which will need some sort of adapter to fit it but not as complicated as the Tilton style just a bar of metal realy
will also need a slave cylinder mount (bit of bent steel) and hole in the bellhousing (grinder)!
but these parts are allmost free (brother cas will be interested at least)

The only Thor item I got was the adapter plate, the rest is being worked out. We've just taken measurements of how much throw etc the release bearing needs today actually...

phew, when I saw the pic of the FC I thought you might be planning another V8 swap, of the low-tech high-cubes variety haha

A few of my bits came through today
Dellow belhousing - a bit rough but cheap and came quick with fork and relase bearing



Dellow flywheel much heavier than MR2 item and still needs ring gear fitted
my car is a lot heavier though - however still a general waste of good money
