i love the idea of you making your own bonnet hinges..........
are you not using stock ones cause you CAN make your own?
or  is there another reason??

Hi Waynos only just saw your msg..
we are really stuck for room as the new inner guards will not look anything like they did  and i hate the stock hinges .

we have settled for these ones as im not overlly keen on making my own


Also we have settled for this booster and master cyl as i hate the massive ebay ones and these masters are cheap and smick looking


And another one i bought was this hat off an aussie company adds extra strength to the housing and has 2 large adjustable screws that put pressure on the main caps for rigidity it will either be polished or powder coated ?


Aaron hand beat this cake tin out thru the week as i want the booster heavilly reccesed in the firewall so it doesnt have a huge big fuglly booster in the engine bay.


No frantic Friday works more important today..

Hi Pete, great job, I am really enjoying keeping up with your progress, thanks for sharing. If you don't mind me asking, what billet bonnet hinges are you using?

Thanks Pete, I thought they were Ring Bros. Have you selected a model yet. They make a set for HQ's that are only available from Rocket Industries apparently.

Hey, in relation to the booster, did the engineer request anything particular about the recess design etc.
