As above, you don't need to drill out inner panels unless you're going for perfection. In fact if you're going down the Rawlnut route as per the below, then they need a bigger (10mm?) hole anyway and are more tolerant of wonkiness.

I'm still looking...

Cheers I hadn't spotted that

Set of four required, provided they're straight and air-tight not so worried about the cosmetics. Anyone got any hanging around having downsized?

I don't suppose these wheels are still for sale?

I seem to remember Caterham quoting 138bhp for the original 1.6SS then downgrading it to 133bhp when the catalyst was fitted.

Cheers for the background, seems like a missed opportunity on the part of CC.

Cheers, I haven't come across Workshop Notices before, seems they're not too easy to come by...?

Many thanks, that's the conclusion I'd come to, but good to have it confirmed. Nice blog by the way, and Merry Christmas to you all

Thanks I've read that but it doesn't say anything about the role of the mysterious top-hat spacer?.....

Thanks for getting back to me, the thing is I also have two of these https://caterhamparts.co.uk/vertical-links/448-front-upright-spacer-wide-track.html which I've used for the function you describe

Having received the wide-track conversion kit from Caterham, with the standard instructions (namely none), one side has gone together quite smoothly. However I have a quandary my kit contains two of these tophat spacers https://caterhamparts.co.uk/fixings/7164-tophat-wishbone.html but they don't seem to be mentioned in any of the assembly guides I can find. Conversely the assembly guide mentions a "special turned down nyloc nut", for holding the bottom of the front upright, which I don't seem to have in my kit, and can't find on the Caterham parts site. I feel the two things might be related but does anyone have any insight? Thanks in advance. Alec

Yeah I believe the Mitchell Cotts version of the MT75 (MTC75?) is a bespoke casing, that has no bell-housing and has the same mounting points as the T9.

Don't know much about that box, I'll do some digging....

Pretty sure that box only has two gears, one forwards one reverse - though not sure what unit it's based on. Also helps that he definitely knows his onions ;-)
