Thanks for the kind words everyone.
I'm keen to produce what people want and need for this. As quickly as possible and to a high standard. Here are the remodelled towers based on comments from the forum. I removed the outboard lightening holes and changed the centre hole to reduce stress concentration. Produced a short run of 3.
About the gearbox failures... I would think you'd have to set off a bomb under the car to damage that. The aluminium part of this shock tower bolts up to the gearbox in 6 places. Should be strong enough for most hits.
