Coming together 
Pretty sure the front shocks will need fitting the correct way though, read on here they are not designed to be used upside down and it will knacker
them?

Dry Sump Arrived
Nova Racing dry sump kit.
I just couldn't live with commiting so much money to a Busa engine then use a wet sump with a swinging pick up.

Dash looks good, is it a MK one?
What are your plans to get through iva with clocks in middle?

Everything is being sourced by Andy at the Scottish Kit Car Centre but I think it is an MK supply.
I didn't know there is an issue with clocks in the middle as I have seen a lot out there like that including Andy's own car.

Unless they are being sunk back in the dash panel,looks like they might be?
The edges fail the radius test.

See what you mean now, I thought you meant as they were in the centre was the issue for view.
Well for the radius Andy is sure it will be fine as in others he has built

Must be a lenient tester he uses!Or he fits some sort of panel over the clocks for IVA test only?
As a m8 of mine has failed radius test on bike clock edges.

Some progress made now, had a little setback with the wheels. They arrived from Image and the powder coating was poorly finished from very rough
casting underneath and strange ripples and creases in the finish.
To be fair to Image wheels though, they arranged for them to be collected by their courier. They were re-finished in a few days and sent back. Great
service but quality control should never have let them out of the building.

Final assembly and wiring of the dash well on its way now.

First Side panel offered up for fitting.

I recognize the dash clocks I had fun setting them up. You won't have the Suzuki FI/Eobd warnings any more with those by the way. So if a
sensor or something goes you'll have no warning.

The original engine harness still has all the conections in place, time to time I will hook up the original clocks and check for fault codes.
Well thats the plan anyway.

Paul Dalloway of GRAF-X CUSTOM PAINT did it for me, it also has more art work on the back. Paul does an amazing job and the finish is perfect, price
really depends on the base helmet you choose and Simpson being the higher end at 650.
Check out his web site for offers - http://www.graf-x.co.uk/
Here is the back

Should have been a bit clearer, did you end up leaving the shocks upside down and was this OK or did you swap them over?

I left them upside down but as you see its not rolling yet, this seems to be a topic thats been around a lot so I just copied how MK put their own
cars together as seen on their Facebook page.
I think its been covered on this site also where Pro-tech also say its fine like this.
