29th May saw the continuation
of the build which is progressing nicely, without too many
major dramas.
Daren came over and said he
had a 'friend' who would like to help, so I said of
course. He revealed it was non other than Vinnie who was
in the area on business, so of course I said yes.
Car out of the garage and
start on the radiator, then we gets the call from Vinnie
and head over to pick him up from his hotel. Back home
with 3 of us we made light work of the radiator and
associated plumbing (except for a missing nut!).
First little issue was that
the 'j' hose was going to foul against the dry sump pulley
and being of the silicon type it is more flexible. Has
any one else had this problem. It was easily resolved
with the use of a couple of tie wraps to the cross member
on the chassis.
Daren fitted the exhaust and
we found out that caterham had not cut the hole for the
foremost bracket, will get them to do at the PBC. The
manual clearly states it should come pre cut for standard
exhaust system and not for the competition version!
Then the heater went in with a
bit of modification and brute force.
The evening finished off by a
bottle of vino and a lovely meal cooked for us :-) by
