I have standard saggy springs at the back with AVO dampers, I didn't want to buy new springs untill I knew what effect the heavier engine would have on the ride height, it looks fairly reasonable at the moment. I probably need to work out the ideal spring rate and ride height and get some made up.
No plans to dry sump but was thinking about making the sump shallower but with added wings, baffles and trap doors, a bit cheaper that way.
I'm not sure about the BIS upper wishbones, I was toying with the idea of a fully rose jointed twin wishbone set-up with coilovers, Nanni do one but its quite pricey, I thought that kit car wishbones of some kind might do the job, still I'm supposed to be having a break from chopping bits up, I promised the my wife and daughters that I would give them some of my time for a while!
I would love to get together, if you ever get over this way let me know.
The tuned aircooled is good fun, ideal for where you are, no motorways to sit on for hours at high revs, and they make a great noise. :twisted:
