As far as items to fix
1/ The master cylinder switch (brake balance) was not working ie staying on all the time. The brakes worked well
2/ I have a superformace internal mirror and I was advised to have a plastic surround one ie Cortina (the superformance one is all metal).
3/ The tyre rating placard in the glove box did not have all the info on.
4/ I ran out of time to finish the windscreen washer.
5/ The 2 mufflers just in front of the diff hang to low by 1/2 inch so we need to bend the exhaust pipe a bit more. Luckily the pipes are all flanged. I have the rear springs jacked up as high as they can go to the extent the rear end bangs to get the 4" clearance.
6/ I didnt finish the immobiliser hook up.
I knew all the issues bar 2 but just ran out of time.

Mick and Rob I was so looking forward to taking my son to the Cobra Nationals with it. But I will now borrow some trade plates and take him to school next Monday that will blow him away as he will not know till the last minute.
Anyway guys get back to your cars you dont realise all the little things to do until you have an appiontment with the engineer to keep. Good luck

Macloft,

Hi Bruce.

Just a couple of questions.

What State are you in? It doesn't mention that in your personal summary.

Did you have any problems with the height of your seats? In NSW now the top of the headrest must be at least 850mm from the seat swab.

What was the maximum speed you had to travel at for your high speed brake test? In NSW it's 160 kph, but I'm doing my best to have that changed.

Baz.
