This was the new block that was being used. New motor will have ALOT of goodies, will show that later in the week

First of the car was sent down to Helps Metalworks to get some fabrication work done. the front end in my Onevia was very weak and needed some attention. The only person i would get to do it is Craig Helps.

First job was to make some room for the wider rubber up front

not much left, its shocking how weak these front ends really are

Tubs in place
