What's on your "to do" list for this winter on your race car?
i was busy all summer and still lots to do but the list is getting shorter.
new items already done,
wilwood front disk brakes
QA1's on the rear
parachute
slicks
an unfortunate event prevented me from racing this year but i did get some things done. rebuilt the 414'' W8 engine. ran it on the run stand to make sure it's all good to put in car. took out the 355'' W2 engine and shoved it in the corner. next was to fit the 414'' in the car. a ton of work that was. dry sump, remote water pump, front mount dist....... i had to move the engine back 1''. so i had to build new front plate, mid plate, and get the driveshaft cut down. and of course build a new set of headers. i got a different rad and fan combo so i had to build the new mounts to make it removable. lots of fab work this year. it was fun but a lot of work.
still need to install wheelie bars, mount the parachute handle, and bleed the brakes. not much left to do.
slowly my car is starting to come together the way i want it. hoping to be in the low 9's
