So
A bit of work done today on the red 430
We noticed that when ‘Woodsport’ has fitted the 3.0 V6, the engine mounting on the chassis was made too big, and the engine has been banging on the mounting
As you can see from the first picture to the second, we have had to reduce the size by a fair amount.
You may also notice that I’ve had to rub a lot of the red paint off the engine bay....
When the engine bay has been painted, the person doing it (I presume Woodsport again), did not scotch pad the original blue paint, and just sprayed over it with red
It’s not taken long for all this paint to be flaking off.... aaarrrggghhh
So now having to scratch off all the red paint on the engine bay, ready to make it good for etch primer and proper paint next weekend.
