    Sorry if this has been asked before/many times over - but can a multi-plate flywheel be machined to suit a V8 clutch setup?

    if so - has anyone produced a drawing outlining the modifications required?

    I agree with VF4 the head looks fixable. External cracks car secured with Devcon Titanium Putty. The stuff is strong enough to expand and contract. You can texture it to look like iron with a clean damp shop towel. I have fixed external frost cracks successfully before

    image.jpeg Easier said than done, but can the body be moved back to allow more leg room, similar to this? Body is back about 6 inches, seat is about 8 inches above the floor.
