      It's been enjoyable putting bits back on the engine and back in the engine bay.

      Still have to spend many hours on the left side valve cover yet. I've been putting this off after spending so, so long on the other one. It's worth it when it's done though.

          Man, this thing is incredible. Love the attention to detail.

          Also, brake booster in the glove box location? That's pretty unique. Would love some more details on that.

                Thank you very much mate.

                As econti commented, Corey from company name "26th Street" makes them but they are to suit right hand drive cars so don't think it"d work for you.

                      Looking really amazing under the bonnet, so much work there!

                      Can you post a picture of the booster arrangement please? What booster and master did you use?

                      Thanks

                        Thanks for the great comment mate.

                        Here is the link (below) for the guy who does the booster relocation brackets. Ther's a bunch of pictures on there. They are for RHD cars and I see you are from the UK so it'll work for you.

                        Its a good bit of gear and easy enough to install.

                        Corey is a good bloke too.

                                Sprung hub means no chatter, if you pick the right clutch
