Google search Huskie Club Miura. It will come up as a page titled Miura Workshop. Click on it and all of the info will come up. It is a site devoted to accurate information primarily archival. There should be approximately 5 factory drawings of the P400 chassis and suspension. There are some differences in the P400, S and SV but it should give you a good foundation. I have worked on several Miuras with very extensive work on one currently. Because the customer has paid me to evaluate several sample vehicles and reverse engineer the chassis sheet metal, it is not information that I am free to post. However, if you contact me directly, I will try to share some resources.

Can I make a suggestion for an engine?
There are a few "retired" Formula 1 engines for sale. V10 maybe V12. How beautiful would it be sitting in a replica Miura! Bella! Apparently not too expensive, certainly sell for a lot less than it cost to build them

I'd like to use a V12 for the Miura project but need to work out the chassis to make sure it will fit. I'm intrigued by Charlie Stickland's Chupacabra chassis. It's made from 5052 aluminum plates cut on CNC router that are then fitted and glued/bonded together. The chassis is well documented on a series of YouTube videos https://youtu.be/eM4dXdOMaSc You can find the videos by searching "chupacabra strickland racing". Does anyone here have direct experience with this chassis or something similar? Like I said, I'm intrigued because it's a very different approach than a traditional tube chassis but I'm interested to know someone's real world experience with how well a bonded chassis holds up over time. I know some auto manufacturers have produced cars with some bonded chassis members but I don't think they've taken it as far as Charlie has.
