Lotus 23B
Email received May 2008 from Tom, who built this Lotus 23B from scratch:
Hello Kim,
I built this Lotus 23B from scratch 1990 ; the chassis is made from Sandvik high strength 55.UTS stainless steel Tig welded in a special jig I made……..5 link reverse rear wishbones and a total of 22 Aircraft stainless rose joints.
Engine parts supplied by STEVE………..Thick wall block , special 2mm larger inlet valves, dry sump, new cams, omega pistons, solid tappets, special valve springs, etc, etc. I bought a lot of the parts. I first designed the chassis after seeking advice from Peter Denty & have still got the drawings. Total mileage from build 3,000 miles.
