    did you happen to get or see the parts car the guy you may have bought the shell off had aswell. this shell definately already had a fair amount of weight taken out of it but there was alot more to remove!

    Do you intend on cooling your fuel Nathan? Or is that just a sealed unit as per manz rules. Looking forward to seeing the completed build.
