Paul,
IIRC this was at the 2005 Rally. Looked very nice, but I think that the radiator had to be offset (angled) to allow the engine to fit. Very nicely done, but I wonder about the weight distribution - it looked a lot of engine over the front wheels.
I think there was some "adjustements" to the gerbox cover as well.
good lick,
Colin
