I've got a few more Phases (except puberty) to go through until the car is ready for the Nationals next year.
Phase-1 was getting the engine checked over and serviced. I got it back from Frank Kleinigs today, and it's like a new engine. The carbies had to be totally overhauled and one of the jets was unscrewed and had fallen out. Got new points and plugs and the compression is spot on and the motor is going like a little beauty.
I now got a pretty dyno graph (my first dyno graph - and it's going in the pool room!) that I'll have to frame
Next Phase is the gearbox, but I think I may have to get the steering fixed first, 'cos it makes clunky sounds and Mr Kleinig said that is not a good thing.
Does "Road and Race" suspension do steering? If so, I'll get it all done at the one time.
