i think it might be a close one with the rear diagonal, youll have to get the cage in and then line up were to put the seat that way.


looking propper smart now though cant wait to see it all finished :)



Right Theres not much left of the seat brackets anymore, had to chop them up and make my own mountings out of them photos will follow soon, been busy with work recently.

Engine is on the dyno tomorrow and hopefully have it in by monday night

Well theres not alot left of my Sabelt seat mounts... RIP it was painful to cut them up but if i didnt cut them id be sat too far back. Ive made some brackets and im picking up on the original seat mounts.

Coming along pretty quick now Matt. I saw your engine today and thought it looked excellent, didn't know it was yours at the time though.
