Richard,

Thanks I didnt click at the time, same family as 18-8, 316.
I am using Jaguar uprights, which are a bit basic but we will make them work and now seriously considering as Aussie Mike has done machine up some billet alloy hubs, as I have to move the wheel flange inwards 1.25" to get the wheel in correct position under the front guard. I think he used 2011 T6 billet. That's supposedly aircraft quality free machining billet aluminum. other alloys like 6061-T6 should work well,

any recommendations appreciated!!!!

Might as well keep the car light as possible, and still durable!

Mickmate, still working hard on your car?
