The custom pistons and rods from my friends / sponsor at CP/ Arias. Started to fit the block to the chassis and start on the coil overs that should bring me up to date going into the week

Well, good luck to you. I will build my junk and see what it does on own.
What are you doing with the old k-member?
That's something I was interested in doing myself with rack and pinion.
Also, thanks for all the photos, I needed some more good ideas for taking weight off the car.
My front frame rails I cut the pinch weld seam off and welded the two pieces together.

Man Is just be at events and talk about it and the manufactures get excited that's how it started when I first started, there is no real road map at all I never would have believed the amount of support I've gotten bench racing is 95% precent of it ( being afriends and working in industry just means they are a captive audience. lol)

Did you make those lower control arms? They look pretty slick.

I did a little more work this weekend on the car (can't wait for fall this heat stinks) trimmed and then welded in the coil over mounts started to fill the firewall and evaluate the rust on the cowl. Then after removing and trimming all the unneeded parts on the frame I went an and installed the firewall to core support brackets that will also double as a mount for the fenders and the aluminum inner fenders. The next step is figuring out the motor mounts it looks as if I will have to add some material back to the vintage elephant ears. Tis will allow for me to wrap up the steering column.
Looks really nice

Don't hate me because i'm beautiful
My hat's off to you for doing the mods it takes to realize your dream.
It is a huge investment in time as well as money.
You have to respect the racers back in the day that went the extra mile to make their cars faster...
You are making an already great car even greater!
I love the Demons!
I will continue to watch along and support your efforts...

Heads up I had to add an extra knuckle on steering shaft. I tried desperately not to but in the end short of really back tracking ( what a expert would do) I gave up and added the knuckle!

A few more vintage parts have made there way here including all the shifter parts. The bracket vintage for the NOS tach came in too I like to run these vintage home made parts at points for the authenticity and feel as their flaws and defects are what make them cool some times. I could have made this bracket or sent a cad drawing to send cut send but it's not the same when done. Also in exciting new when the guy gets back from indy I found and bought a NOS Magnesium case for an A833 so I'll have to send the trans back in for a bit more work.
Love the vintage parts you are using.
