Re: Big-Foot's RCR-40 Build Thread - "SuperCar"

Hi Fellas,

Well it's been a while since my last update.
I sold the Nova in November and the Forty assumed it's position in the shop.
Some of you know that I put up a build site (in my signature line) and although it went online just 2 weeks ago, it already maxed out my bandwidth at 1GB and over 95,000 hits. I had to upgrade the account. I knew that the domain name might attract some people but I think I underestimated it..

Anyway - The vast majority of work I've been doing I call Infrastructure Work. Basically work on those sub assemblies and parts that will go towards the build itself.

Since I believe I'm one of the first people to use a G50/03 transaxle (Jeff Hamiilton is the other that I know of) - I needed to play around with things to get them where I wanted them. That includes the detailed modifications I had to do to the transaxle to make it fit as well as relocation of the driveline to finish accommodating the longer transaxle.

I still have a long ways to go.. I'm hoping that by my documenting the build that I'll be able to help some others with their builds..

Thanks guys...
