New stone guards to fit, last ones melted. Sort out the gear change indictor, paint and drive weather permitting





Think about it, think about it again and then do it.

If the bits turn up I'm changing brake master cylinder sizes now RD do a 1/2" bore so it'll be F0.5" and rear 0.625" instead of 0.625+0.7" Hopefully it'll give me a bit more feel in exchange for a bit more travel.





Tempted by this myself as I have very little travel in the pedal and next to no feel....I guess it will give a bit more travel and better feel?

But how do I go about setting up my bias bar again as I bought the car already built and registered so never had to set it in the first place?

Better than sitting around being bored! Mind you, clutch change is not a job I ever really want to do again. Good skills doing that in a day.

Likewise, I'm going from a 3.62 LSD to 3.14 LSD. Here's hoping it swaps out without dismantling too many major assemblies! Also got a loose connection behind the dash to sort out, change the fuel gauge, swap the scuttle mounted rear view mirror for a windscreen mount, and disappointingly, an LED sidelight and indicator both need replacing.
