Turbo Jet it is then..
I have started work on the engine supports and the idea will basically be the same as the Solent frame. Shock mounts will be fixed to the support rail to reduce vibration.
I can now start on the serious stuff as the manual has just arrived from Bruce @ Avon Aero.

Does anybody out there have a spare JFS100 exhaust nozzle and Throttle assembly that they would like to sell? Rather than make one up I would prefer to get hold of a stock item instead.
Please contact me if you have.

The beginnings of my Go Kart Engine Mount Frame (Chassis Side), a coat of red oxide primer always helps to make the job look good.

 
Next, I'm going to start work on the fuel system.
Fuel System. From the tank between my legs, the fuel passes through a (12V) LP fuel pump and in to the filter assembly and once filtered the fuel enters the engines own fuel system. The drain valve is connected to a tee piece just below the LP fuel pump so when the HP Cock is de-energised the fuel can flow back to the tank.

Battery's (24V), Power Isolation Switch & Starter Solenoid. Battery holder yet to be made.

The start of the control panel fairing. The shape was made using cardboard and packing tape.
