Wrightpayne Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 I found this advert for the car - reading the blurb looks like Team Leos worked on the car - they may know...https://racecarsdirect.com/Advert/Details/133676/caterham-24-litre-r300 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralph45 Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 Chris I've just had a look at that link Ian has given and it says Reverie compact carbon fibre bell housing so I would make that my first port of call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Area Representative paul richards Posted February 19, 2023 Area Representative Share Posted February 19, 2023 Crikey. That looks like one expensive bellhousing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris SSR400 Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 "Reverie Carbon Fibre Compact Bell-Housing"Speak to Reverie? Sorry for the repetitive answer. Above replied quicker than me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L66TEY Posted February 20, 2023 Author Share Posted February 20, 2023 Hi Gents,Already checked with Reverie and Luke Stevens. Transpires that Reverie didn't make the Bellhousing, they repaired it at one point. And whilst Luke worked on the car they didn't supply the Bellhousing. Seems the best hope is trying to get in touch with Tony Bennett?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rj Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 Just polish the one you have and pull a glass mould ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7 wonders of the world Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 Compact version requires new flywheel, clutch and starter motor too. but does remove the step to the Raceline DS pan.Be interesting to see the weight compared to an Ally version, for the money there are better weight / rotational mass savings to be made Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L66TEY Posted February 20, 2023 Author Share Posted February 20, 2023 So it transpires that Reverie were behind the Bellhousing, by means of them having laminated it. Albeit the mould does not belong to Reverie. The hunt is now on for the mould. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
