courntey I think. Just get some alloy about 1.5" wide and 1" high, and some 14XE head bolts, you'll need to rim the head bolts ot length though.
Reduces dive under braking and better turn in.

ha ha, guys, invest in some 4mm thick brass washers, buy about 40 of them and some longer bolts-works exactly the same!

Indeed no i realise where they go, the design above seems a bit elaborate. What thickness are the courtney ones?

i didnt see the point in the milk float but i might have gone for them if i still had the white one! ive been out in clints car and yes it does make a diffrence, it behaves more like the front end is 'normal' weight.

Long story but basically.
We were all having a family get together on the Thursday after christmas but because of the snow on the wolds it was cancelled and rearranged for that Sunday.
Shame really as had intended to get some jobs on the car ready for the meet but ended up putting them off lol. However i did make a start on them today.
Will have to see if i can make the next one!
