Hey all, thanks for the input. I will do a bit of digging around and see whether the drivetrain is saveable or if I look at changing it out for more modern components where I can.
The big headache for me at the moment is the diff drive pinion setup. All of the ones I have are pretty ugly and I wouldn't be too happy to run them long term. They also seem to be horrifically expensive to replace... The diff gear for the belt drive is also quite worn, so I'll have to see whether replacements for that are too pricey as well.
I also only have 1 spur/idler drive gear, and while it is in good condition, if I'm going through the effort of getting this thing raceable, I want to know it will last and if it breaks/wears out I can find replacement parts that don't require a mortgage extension...
