Just do the easy things to it now and drive it but do plan a supercharger next. 488 prices where taking a tumble so I jumped ship thankfully Shocked not replaced it yet, enjoying the break and blood loss working on the defender Rolling with laughter

There are plenty of supercharger options for your LS3. I don't know whether you're familiar with the Aussie firm "Harrop",...if you check the web, you'll see they do a heap of supercharger stuff,..this company has a huge reputation in Aussie,..quality all the way.
However, perhaps a better way, with respect to an engine I've mentioned before, would be to go with a crate LSA,...430 KW out of the box, big torque, and much stronger internals. You would never need to do anything to this engine.
I didn't know that a supercharger was on your horizon.
The paddle shift you are engineering is quite unbelievable, I have never seen ANYONE coping with the level of design stuff etc that you have.

Not really, waiting on the circuit board for the paddle shift to finish that and just driving away at it. Planning to get on with the interior soon but it’s been faultless and have a good smile every day driving it Thumbs Up

Just messing about with small jobs as work is a bit crazy but fitted the Classic HU. Will pair it to the usual Focals and that is plenty for me.

Also gave an electronics Uni student the task to design and build the internals for my custom paddles. Worked a treat on the test drive so he is just fitting the board into the housing and I can them get them fitted.

Hi Andy,

You wouldn't happen to still have the boxes for the rear discs? Mine are starting to pit badly and need replacing... they've been on for about 5 years (if not more) so not too bad.

Also who sold them? JE? Rakeway?

7k miles on the LS now. Fitted the bespoke paddle shift which is way better than using the switch on the gear stick. Having the paddles machined in alloy by Croytec to match the other bits I have added, door handles etc. but other than that going good Thumbs Up

🤤 Such a beautifully put together machine...

Question though, do you not find the paddles to be a bit too low down or will you be extending them upward with the new alloy ones? Stuart

They are spot on. I tried them up towards the centre but you keep hitting the wipers or indicators!! Andy
