Hi All,

Phil ... The rear brake calipers will have a cable actuated mechanisim for applying the P-brake. That is all I know right now.

............................................................ ........................................

Here are some pictures of the shop and the UN1, after bead blast, water rinse, etch, alodine, epoxy prime and paint.

The case is from a -26 (Lotus Espirit, heavier case rib's around the ring & pinion, more aluminum at the 5th gear bearing support. Plus the shifter mechanisim inside the tail is improved over the -13).

The lower gearset and R&P are both UN1-13 piece's.

The gearsets were both very low mileage and in pristine condition. New O-rings, seals and gaskets have been used exclusively.

Kind of the best of both worlds.

Soon I'll post some 289 pic's at the engine shop.

Cheers,
Scott
