£300

I would imagine most of the money goes into the driveshafts - they are made from solid heat trated stainless steel. They weigh a frickin' tonne but should be good for a few hundred bhp

I agree though, they are very expensive kits, but will save money in the long run because running drive shafts that are 20mm too long on one side must cause problems. The gearbox spacer looks to have been cut with an angle grinder The engine mount isn't too pretty either. I think that the M-Tec kits now use a proper cast engine mount.

I bought this off MattB as he had a chage of heart.

Does the CossVaux kit include the PAS kit?

I think the LMF kit does at that price.

They can supply a PAS kit. I don't have PAS so I don't need that...

i've used cossvaux hubs £160
cally shafts £free
LM mounts £105
mantzle powercap £110
cossvaux pas mount £45
Green cotton filter £25

planning on forking out for the correct size n/s shaft at some point so i don't kill the box or bearings too quick. that'll be another £130, but no mad rush at the moment.
