Bit of progress

After 2 weeks having done nothing due to being ill, i finally did some work yesterday.
I had been building my chassis on our old dining room table but its a bit high to weld on so i took it off and put it on axle stands.
While it was outside i had my first sit in it (but didnt make broom, broom sounds ). Its strange how it looks more like a car when its out in the open
The only concern i have is the room for pedals. Im sure there is enough but just wanted to check. Are the requirments for pedal spacing in the SVA manual?





How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

this has been dsicussed before and I see to remember 50 mm or something like that being mentioned but I have not spotted that in the SVA manual.

It could be one of those items inspected at the discretion of the tester.

obvioulsy you want them to be far apart so you are not pressing more than one pedal at a time with one foot.

I raised this question before here:

Linky

everyone seemed to agree on 50mm minimum.
