You running 172 box? If so you'l already have those 'volvo' brackets on I would imagine, although they will be the Renault version that come on the 172's...
Im running the std valver clutch cable too, nice and light!
You would need to fit the whole wiring from the cup car afaik, along with the interior side of it and then the ECU etc as its all Magnetti Marrelli as bmh says.
480/Chris had the setup for sale at one point a while back.
Should have sprayed the lettering Naples first, let it fully dry for a few days then used some Fasmask onto the lettering, then done everything white and peeled the mask off the lettering to leave it red.
If you put the Fasmask on too soon it will just peel the Naples paint off the lettering...
Its called Fasmask, ive used it before. Works pretty well but it didnt work too well when i tried to use it for the lettering on my inlets.
I just used paint out of a pot, a brush and patience to paint the letters one by one.

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project
Made a start over the past few days with the tube. Im aiming to get the screen out, all bars profiled and ready to do one lot of welding on everything within the next few weeks at the latest.
As said a few days ago I picked up the additional CDS, the bulk...
IIRC the helper spring is there for when your suspension expands as you are driving over the road surface, it keeps pressure down on the main spring rather than them becoming fully decompressed and moving about
That particular one lasted about 20 days, it was purchased from GSF. Did two trackdays in that time. Whereas the other side is a renault bearing and has done 12 trackdays over the year, and its still 100% fine!
