Gavbey's stage 2 mk3, FIXED

[gavbey]

flywheel is in at work but skiming the face is going to be harder than i thought!

bead blasting would give it a nice ruff effect BUT not necisarily flat!

need to get the dowles out to skimp the pressure plate lip also!

hope i dont have to fork out for a new one!

dam flywheel.

Manage to torque the flywheel bolts up alright?

I found it a nightmare.

great work and great readers ride. 1 thing, have you uprated your rods yet as the wot box will bend the standard ones in no time, infact i give it hours. seen 3 lcr in the last month have this problem.

May look into this as Im ready for a clutch and unsure what to go for.

Also, how did you smooth the rocker cover or did you buy it like that?

i smothed the rocker cover with an angle grinder and some chemical metal.

i went for wrinkle black paint but never worked out so a few coats of high build primer and white
