The engine and gearbox assembly has been professionally rebuilt by Manx Racing using all new top quality internal parts. A genuine S 1275 thick flange block is used overbored using omega pistons on steel conrods, all fully balanced along with the crankshaft, lightened flywheel, competition clutch and duplex timing gears. The cylinder head is a lead free big valve using S rockers. Carburation uses an 1 3/4 HIF 44 with K & N fitter and matched Inlet manifold using a Janspeed 3 branch 1 twin box centre exit exhaust system. The power is driven through a silent gear helical gearbox with central oil pickup through a 3.44 final drive. The drive train uses pot joints on S flanges, S discs and callipers, through an integral servo and master cylinder. Aeroquip brake hosing and fuel lines have been used throughout.
Genuine 6x10 Minilites are fitted with Yokohama A 008 165 x 70 tyres.

stainless steel bumpers, autolec battery cutouts, red top facet fuel pump and fuel filter, using Aeroquip fuel piping with alloy fittings throughout, negative camber adjustable rear suspension, lowered alloy trumpets all round, negative camber special turning bottom arms with adjustable tie rods. 4 Engine stabilizers hold the ingine in place and a high flow radiator that cools the water system.
