I know RHS stands for rectangular hollow section.
SHS - Square hollow section?
CHS - Cauliflower?

Ok hehehe.. this makes a little more sense. I figured it would be something like that but I just couldn't place the words.
Thanx for the prompt reply. I'm getting ready to start a chassis which I think I am going to base on the McSORLEY 7+4 design. I'm in Canada and
have contacted Haynes in the UK to get a copy of Ron Champions Book which all of you know of hehe. My engine plans will be a Mazda Rotary 13b T2 or
normally aspirated fuel injected. They are 200hp and 165hp in the same order. Lots of "onions" for a 1200-1500 pound car hehehehe. I've been
reading some other threads about measurement acuracies and so on but I'll work in inches and hope for the best I built a frame for an 85 Celica
mutating it into a 4x4 with 40 inch mudders. I think I can get around any offsets that may be present in the plans I have.
It says right on the plan sheets that Mr. McSorley created "FOR EDUCATIONAL USE ONLY" but hey, this is gonna be an education isn't it?? hehehe
I could use the standard "book chassis" but the +4 inch design will fit the wider axles I have access to over here.

Note to all: I really don't know when to leave well alone. I tried to get clever with the mods, then when they gave me a lifeline to see the
error of my ways, I tried to incite more trouble via u2u. So now I'm banned, never to return again. They should have done it years ago!

Aren't hoods items of clothing?

Of society offenders who might well be underground,
And who never would be missed-- who never would be missed!
