Nice!!!

 

Where did you get the battery relocation kit from????

[___Dubstar___ 0]

cheers, the battery caused a bit of a debate as to weather it should be fused from the starter back as theres a fair bit of juice running the length of the car and if it should earth the world wounld end and the car would burst into flames - so in answer to your question the black box is an off the shelf phoenex gold fused distribution box rated upto 300 watss with the monster fuses and diagnostics. The box cost £149 new. Had to fit the higher capacity fused distributer as apparently anything under 300 watts keeps blowing when you turn the engine over, that and it looked flash and has leds.

Very nice, i would be more interested though to find out if that level indicator tube will hold up under the pressure.

 

Other than that looks very clean

thanks, i think the level indicator will be fine, the guy who made them up has been making these for years for other cars in the same style and had no problems, the trick is getting the levels right so that it doesent overheat from being to low or boil over from being to high!

That looks really smart

 

Good work.

Its an absolute waste of money but I do love a pimped out engine bay. Yours looks wicked, I bet your using any excuse to open the bonnet now aren't ya.

You just can't beat good old fashioned lumps of metal with all the bits hanging off them...Can't stand the whole plastic engine cover thing that every car on the planet seems to come with these days.
