Iva my bec

Ola all,

I have my tiger almost complete for track use and wondered how much as a guide getting it to iva would cost. I have all the receipts for it and now a recon engine.

No reverse as yet
No lights as all apart from the rear brake and indicator set. (Positioned as per Westfield iva guide)
When I've fit all the parts I've been rounding the corners

Any thoughts on the cost of parts n work to get it through?


David





Thanks

Reverse will be your biggest expense imo, depends if your chassis has mounting points for a starter motor reverse gear?
If you can weld and are pretty good at making up brackets etc it would save you a fair bit of £££.

If your going to have to go reverse box you won't see much change from £7-800 by time you've sorted propshafts etc.

What sort of Fireblade engine? I will have a Fireblade engine mounted electric reverse up for sale soon so no need for chassis welding and major changes.

If you've got a Freelander differential in the rear, then I do have a ready to fit reverse motor, bracket and sprocket kit (adapted from the AB kit). It graced my Westfield for a short while, when a reverse was requirement. It no longer is one.
