RS Motorsport :: Classic Speed Restored

Firstly, I need to say a million thank yous to all the people on this forum who have helped me get to this point. You have been free with your time and knowledge and have been an invaluable source. Without you this car would not exist. I also apologise for not getting photos up before but I had my reasons...

Dry sumped using Weaver and Peterson parts
T9 close ratio heavy duty striahgt cut gearbox with hydraulic concentric clutch

That's looking awesome mate. Nice to finally see some pictures after hearing about its development on 3 different forums!

I wish you luck with your time frame. I'd have no chance!

Very nice mate...

Sweet mate - looks great.

I have the Tilton brake reservoir which work without issue and arguably the cheapest way to fit triple reservoirs.

Good luck with the rest of the build!

Cheers. I wouldn't say the Tilton was a cheap option!!!!! Neat though.

Cheapest not cheap.

Jegs have them for $123.00.

Who did the motor?

The motor used to reside in an RS2000 in WA. Kent GTS4 cam, cosworth rods, Mahle forged pistons, standard modified crank, group 1 stainless valves, Sierra ignition. Had the bottom end refreshed just to be safe.

Got my Tilton from Racer Industries in Qld. $210 delivered though :(

Cool will be great to see it going.

Love the colour!

Ford BA Toxic - my modern take on the RS2000 Le Mans green

Slight disaster.......the carby bloke who is rebuilding my DCOE 48's cannot locate the correct 38mm chokes from anywhere in the world (!!!!) so it looks like he will have to lend me a set of new 45 DCOE's to get me into the event. I think there is also an issue finding one of the return springs on the shaft.

If anybody has these parts I would love to hear from you!!!

These guys have been fantastic for me - post same day express mail!

If the 48's are DCOE's and DCO's you use chokes out of 45's and just shorten the back edge.

Paul and Warren, Danny M said the same thing to me yesterday. It appears that my man is also missing a few other parts. Will have a chat to him re the above
