speed-science-logoSome quick decisions needed to be made, the old question to “fabricate” or “bolt on”…this is a no-brainer as the quality of bolt-on parts just makes so much more sense. Gone are my days of crawling around junk yards and re-furbishing a twenty year old part. The Honda K2 Motor is certainly not new but the amount of bolt on new parts is incredible. New Zealand is really fortunate to have a total one stop online shop. Speed Science – Order Performance Car Parts Online, Stocked In NZ & Shipped To Your Door: Global Brands, World Class Service.

Dash Board beginnings

 Just saw the dashboard waiting for Scott to mark out the template and drill the holes for all the gauges. This is a great part of the build as this fabrication sets up the boundaries necessary for the engine cover design. Progress is always nice, even when we plateau that just means minds are ticking over considering all options.

Once Robert got the mock-up dash the wires came off his jig and were soon being connected to the gauges…wow!
