nicksmelly Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Is that a polypropylene ATL fuel cell or a Bag Tank? We have an ATL fuel cell in our racer, fantastic bit of kit, supposed to be burst proof. What make are the coilovers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bush65 Posted July 16, 2006 Share Posted July 16, 2006 Very impressive, really really nice work. are they sway-a-ways? I agree. They don't look like any swayaway racerunner coilovers that I have seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filthy boy Posted July 17, 2006 Author Share Posted July 17, 2006 I agree.They don't look like any swayaway racerunner coilovers that I have seen. The coilovers are custom built by Leda. 16" travel, adjustable damping, rebound and high speed blow off. 1 coil has been removed so the thing will sit roughly right, but it will get dropped a few more inches. Frame was built by a race car fab company more used to working for people like Ascari. Not really a DIY job as it needed an enormous CNC hydraulic bender. There are a few clearance issues to be resolved (nothing major), just the things you can really only identify as it goes together. We will be at Billing this weekend so pop over and say Hi. But don't put finger marks on the shiny bits!!! It's not for getting dirty (yet) FB PS thanks for all the nice comments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
