Hello fellow car nuts,
In inventorying the junk I have to move to my new place, I realized that
I have these parts laying around:
1. a fairly straight Spit mk2 tub with rear wings;
2. an extra pair of Spit Mk2 doors;
3. several early Spit boot lids;
4. two spit mk2 bonnets;
5. a spit mk2 frame with 4.11:1 diff
6. a 1500 engine and later Spit gearbox
7. a 1100 engine
8. couple of windscreens.
9. a Weber 45DCOE on an 8-port manifold.
It looks to me like I got enough parts to throw together a cool-looking
early Spit autocrosser. Oh, I've got an 8-port header, too.
The Weber & manifold were on a 1300 - will they fit a 1500?
I'd kind of like to try to make this car as quick as possible - could anyone
lead me to some books on how to do this? I know the rear axle setup on a
Mk2 is pretty bad - how do I go the swing-spring?
Any and all advice welcome!
Larry
