    Greg, congrats! No doubt you've found some already but the build blogs from other builders are really useful and have better pictures and explanations than the official manuals. A couple are: https://caterham420rbuild.com/other-caterham-sites/ https://www.purplemeanie.co.uk/index.php/2017/09/23/build-session-17-5-caterham-420r-water-and-oil-overview/ (The diagram John made for plumbing were really useful). I just finished my 420R SV a few months ago so if you need any help let me know! Simon
  2. Hi all, My name is Simon, I'm a first time poster and a bit of a noob with car building, although I'm learning fast! I ordered a 420R SV a couple of years ago, started building in April this year and about finished up last month, although I still have some Winter projects to do. It's basically a "race" spec car, with full roll cage, fire extinguisher, external electrical cut-off, race suspension, etc. Here's a vid of the first track day shakedown... Next May I'm planning on racing it in the HSR series at Barber. I have all the required safeties for the series except for an FIA/FT-3 Fuel Cell. Does anyone have experience or suggestions with fuel cells that might help point me in the right direction? Is the SV tank bigger than a regular? Thanks! Simon
  3. I don't know if this answers the question but I ordered a 420R kit in the US last October and got an April build slot.
