CHASSIS Chassis is a fabricated backbone. At the front, a T section provides attachment for the suspension. At the rear a Y section splits to straddle the engine/gearbox unit.	BODY Body consists of a modular glassfiber construction - a combination of chop, mat, and resin. Body is painted white - org color was blue (PO comment).
FRONT SUSPENSION Front suspension is based on the ubiquitous Triumph upright and trunion. A-arms are 3-sided bent steel, of unequal length. Currently: 750# front springs 275# rears ~1.75" lowering 3/16" toe out F 1.25 degrees negative camber F	REAR SUSPENSION Rear suspension is comprised of boxed steel trailing arms running near parallel to the chassis center, a lower lateral link attaching the bottom of the aluminum hub to the bottom of the gearbox carrier, and the half-shaft acting as an upper lateral link. The upright/hub is aluminum and locates, via a series of bearings, a steel stub axle connected to the half-shaft. Currently: 275# rears ~1.75" lowering 1/4" toe in R 2 degrees negative camber R For more info on the rear suspenion, maintenance and improvement, go here.
ENGINE - GORDINI I've found that the plugs foul up w/ too much around town, off-idle driving. But, they clear easily enough when I really get on them. The motor is breathing thru twin 40 DCOEs.	TRANSMISSION 336 is a fine shifting mechanism. Updated to RD Enterprises supplied Gear Lever Ball Joint & Bearing Plates & Shift Lever bushes. For $88 it went from virtually unshiftable to showroom new. See the carnage: previous bearing plate See what I replaced it with
HUBS WHEELS TIRES 185x60-13 A008Rs are mounted on 13" Revolution Aloys. Tire is basically a DOT-legal slick.	STEERING Small diameter wheel - column bezel is loose.
BRAKING SYSTEM Braking has needed lots of bleeding - and the rear shoes needed serious adjustment to minimize pedal travel and promote engagement. Braided brake lines are pending installation. Master Cylinder has been replace w/ Nissan F10 MC: Nissan F10 Master Cylinder: $14.99 http://tinyurl.com/24os38 PEGASUS RACING: http://www.pegasusautoracing.com/ Tilton Small Reservoir Tank, 4 oz 2 needed x $6.79 each = $13.58 Filter Screen for Tilton Small Reservoir 2 needed x $4.49 = $8.98 Threaded Cap for Tilton Master Cylinder & Reservoir 2 needed x $5.99 = $11.98 Banjo Bolt: M10x1.0 Single banjo 2 needed x $4.99 = $9.98 Motul RBF 600 DOT 4 Racing Brake Fluid: $14.99	COOLING SYSTEM Currently, running a rear mounted reserve radiator, an oil cooler, and the org radiator has been replaced w/ a lighter VW unit.
FUEL SYSTEM Standard tank - electric fuel pump, but not the Carter 4070 that I wish it was. Since it's not causing a problem, yet, it will stay. But, the Carter is on the shelf and is know for its excellent performance as a high volme and low pressure pump.

Installed an H4 upgrade, w/o requiring resistors or keep-alives. Kit was from Moss Motors and was essentially a. remove old headlights / b. install new headlights
