The car is all back together,

Brakes stop with confidence, and the engine bay turned out ok.

Hi Ken,

Well done and great progress.
The green is great!
Brakes are awesome too!

Which QA1 did you use?
Size of Spring etc.
Did you buy locally or USA?

Hey thanks!!!

I just ordered the Kit from Mcdonald Bros Racing.

Its a 350 LB Spring.

They don't stock QA1 anymore, they use Viking, but it all looks similar.

I ended up getting the springs reset to get them into a usable range of adjustment on the coil-over, but if your not going too low then you might be ok.
