We now have the M150 running a modified but still fairly standard engine.

VVEL removed and lift locked at max.
Wet sump (baffled - one of Charles' - CJ Motorsport)
Car stripped (1198kg dry) empty of fuel but with oil and water, no driver
AP Racing brakes (362mm fronts 6-pot and 330-odd 4-pot rear)
6 x Jenvey ITB with DBW
PPE LTH and race system from headers back - need to pass 95DBa at 30m drive-by
Full national series cage thru to front suspension towers from rear suspension
Carbon fibre door cards
Splitter, diffuser and wing

Planning on dyno next week, testing tomorrow week and if all goes well, first race after my Variety Club charity event (Melbourne to Cairns via inland route - ~5000kms in 11 days in aid of a children's charity) during first part of August

Once the car has a race weekend under its belt, we'll install the 4-litre engine and go chasing Porsches

Has only taken 6 and a half years !!!!
