Fossa engine fitted …..

We completed fitment of Fossa’s engine on the 21st. First start taking place at about 14h00.

This evening we took Fossa for her first run. Initially she was stuttering at speed which did not show up during idling. With a slight retarding of her ignition timing, she was her old self again, even touching on some rallying a road stripped of it’s tar coating.

The timing adjustment was done without a timing light so that has to be measured and we found water leaking from her radiator somewhere along the top ….. worst case scenario we can return her original radiator …..

The immediate future. Well with our next race only in July, we are thinking of some track time possibly as soon as coming Wednesday at the Zwartkops Raceway. Have to attend to a modification to her a-frame in the morning ….. greetings …..
