Home made hybrid prop, std prop is same external size as sj but sj is thicker walled, the solution is to tube over the outside, and the tube is that close i had to hammer it onto each prop

Jobs to do, finish bulkhead, make the clutch cable fit the pedal, mount cable to the gearbox, paint all new metal, get engine in and running. Make some brakes eventually discs all round using the gti brakes saved off the car anf mgf discs. Run a new fuel feed with inline. Then go have some fun. Hope you have enjoyed it up to now and thanks for having a read
