Thanks,the exhaust was made of bits of old pipe
That was lying about!!!
It was only 96db on the sound test(I think
I may not quite of been at 4500rpm).
It is massive over geared at the moment
70mph is about 1700-2000 rpm.
That will be sorted this week as I have a drift
Day this Saturday!!!!

The car looks great! Are they 'Rangerbob' arches from the Retro Rides forum?

It is indeed, but
I have great reservations about removing its front cross member and not replacing it in any way.
We had the same discussion about this for Iandollysprint's Vauxhall engined project.
