Yep, I'm finally filling in the form and sending it off today, which means that I'm now comitting myself to finally finishing the build which feels like it dragging it's heels. If I had know I would go 2,500 quid over budget and spend the best part of the every weekend for the last 2 1/2 years lying on my garage floor then I may well have reconsidered taking on a project that I knew nothing about, I didn't even know my big end from my crank. I can however thank my lucky stars that my todo list is finally reduced to the size of a very small list of not much to do except fit the Pilgrim SVA Kit and ensure the fuel tank is full.
Whilst I wait for the Pilgrim kit to arrive I thought I'd better fill in the SVA1 form that's been on my desk for a very long time gathering dust.
I have a few questions that I thought I'd air on the forum as I'm sure others have filled these in before.
First thing; Question 9, Vehicle Class, Which boxes need to be ticked?
I know my name and address so that's Question 10 sorted.
Next Design weights;Axle 1 ,2 , Gross & Train weights???
Are these the total weight under which the components operate? or the actual weight of front/rear axles? I thought they measured all this as part of the test?
Max Road speed & Max Revs?
I know they use the road speed to check your tyres are ok, Would they believe me if I put 70 {-} And the Revs are used to check the Db level of the engine exhausts. Are the figures 130MPH and 3500 Revs reasonable?
:tu Thanks
