Bonneville Landspeed Racing - Let's Try a Thing.

-
I got the hyd clutch line ran but ran into an issue with the brake masters and lines. Got that sorted out, just needs to be finished up. New 1350 yokes came yesterday, so i can measure for a driveshaft and get that made soon. Looking at anow again this weekend. Yuck.

Alao my body isn't cooperating. I believe it is cervical angina from budged c5-7 discs. Leaves me paranoid of cardiac issues which is exhausting. Back/spinal surgery will likely be in my future. Not sure when, but quality of life is dwindling.
 
Also, got a reply from Calies about a 2.96" stroke SBM crank. They said they haven't made a SBM crankshaft in 15yrs. WTH?
 
So, I was able to get some time in the garage finally. I got the hyd throwout bearing line ran, the bleeder line in, the brake masters have the correct hose barbs and all 3 hoses cut and run to the remote reservoir. I found that I ordered the wrong slip yoke. I thought all A833 trans have the 30 spline output, well not the aluminum case OD trans. Those are 26 spline like the 904. So, that is ordered and driveshaft will get measured once the yoke gets here next week. I hope to peck away at a bunch this weekend. I made up the lower shock spacers today, so that can be finished up. No more stacked washers.
 
Dude, get your back fixed asap. Get the quality of life back so you can enjoy the stuff your doing.

Sheesh, you are bossy. lol

Yes I know. I have a neuro spine appt on Tuesday. Hopefully they can help. If I need surgery, then it will be after Bonneville! It has been a combo of cold/snow/ice and long work weeks on top of pinched nerves. I am doing what I can.
 
I got some time in the garage. Lower shock mounts and spacers worked great. Brake line cushion clamps all in. Fuel line clamps didn't show up. Most of the engine wiring is done, switch panel is partially wired. Trunk hinges made and temp installed. Gas tank is bolted in tight. Worked a little on pulley alignment.

Rough day today, but got all the fuel line clamps on, figured out what I need for the electric fans. I can bend those up at work. I have to pick up some oil, a battery ground cable, battery, etc this week. Also need to figure out where i want the battery and build a box for it. I figured out the front tow hooks. Tailights are in, but I only had 2 of the 4 bulb socket/pig tails.
