C for Carbs, It was a 316 (1.8L) but looked daft with just the numbers. C for coupe would be contentious, so I justified it by thinking that if the injected cars can wear an 'I' badge, I would get away with a 'C' badge. There's an article in the mag, took about eight months of digging about in scrap yards, but cost less than a grand (well, in parts anyway) including the £200 I paid for the car. Thanks for the comments guys. Cheers. Rob. :D

Hi, I cut the lower part of the Mtech bumper from the main body of it with an angle grinder, then removed my bumper, shortened and narrowed the Mtech (now just a valance) part to fit on my valance, attached to my valance via screws and filler and replaced my bumper over the top. Bit of a pain, but looks better.

Hi, At the moment about 120/125bhp, but with the 292 cam and the 4-into-1 about 145/150. That should be done by Xmas. Not a lot, but that makes power-to-weight at 150-tonne as the car weighs 980kgs. :D
