I had a nice package in the post today from Jenvey, but before we get to that, I have resolved to finish the 5, so I spent the weekend working on it.
Windscreen, wiper arms / blades and interior mirror now fitted
Door mechanisms, window winders and glass now fitted and all working
Interior Dynamat fitted, and a start made to the inner rear wheel arch foams and trim
Steering completed
Wing and door trims and front sidelamps fitted
I'm on a roll with this, and intend to keep going .....
But back to the Sprint, inside the box from Jenvey was this
throttle cable, fuel rail, and linkages
idle air bleed kit - this replaces the idle bleed screws so you can control idle with a control valve driven from the microsquirt - the valve didn't come from Jenvey - its a vauxhall one
and finally a pair of twin throttle bodies
45mm chokes, so sexy in fact that I couldn't resist seeing what they looked like on the manifold
I know they are not in the correct placement - the linkages should be on the inside but who cares ? I need bell mouths but I want to see what room I have left between the bodies and the inner wing before ordering these.
Looks like I am going to be very busy with the 5 and the Sprint for a month or two
