very happy with these, the bolt that goes through the centre of the bush is just for setting up and will be removed then the bosses welded in place. So measured up for shafts hope to have them back in a week or two then i get to drive it ;-)

1600 16v tbs around 190+ with a Sadev sequential box. Lots of time and money gone into this project, its pretty much a S1600 spec Tigra.

Whilst having a run out the clutch cable snapped which was a bit of a bugger and i never quite liked the way the cable fitted so going to modify a Mini slave cylinder to operate the clutch fork.

Its taking quite a bit of work to get this box in and im busy doing more modifications to get it right but the small amount of driving ive done its worth every bit of it.
