Just a couple of more days Doc! More lost sleep (or nice dreams).

Doc Kaler · 09-18-09, 04:26 PM

Jack, Cam, et al.,

I finally got the call from the driver saying he will deliver around noon-ish tomorrow. Now I can go do my "honey-do's" around the farm today....

Dave, what turbo, ecu, injectors, porting, and you going to run? I can't wait to see some videos of this thing running!!

Molleur · 09-18-09, 09:25 PM

FINALLY! We're all elated to hear the news!

Doc Kaler · 09-19-09, 05:38 PM

Here are some photos at my SL-C's arrival. The guy in the blue shirt and "Can't Drive 55" hat is old Doc Kaler.......

Randy V · 09-19-09, 08:03 PM

Doc - you lucky dawg,,,

There's a new Sheriff in Lone Oak Texas...

But I'm confused - you have the brembo brakes on, but a gigantic Wilwood box in the front seat?

Doc Kaler · 09-19-09, 11:19 PM

I admit that I haven't opened the boxes yet but I am assuming they contain Master cylinders and bits. I did see some nice braided Brembo banjo-fitted brake hoses, a stout RCR pedal assembly, some other Brembo packages, etc. I'll take "inventory" tomorrow. I spent some time peeling off the clear tape and I'll get the goo cleaned off tomorrow as well.

VicM · 09-20-09, 05:51 PM

Congratualations Doc.

VicM · 09-20-09, 05:52 PM

Congratulations Doc.

Mesa · 09-20-09, 07:21 PM

Welcome to the Gang, ooops sorry make that Club. Now hurry up so you can show me how it's supposed to be done

Doc Kaler · 09-20-09, 10:50 PM

Rob,

That would be "Blind leading the blind"!! If you don't know......who would?

It's a great "gang" to be associated with.

Never forget, BLUE is the fastest color!

(Jack, even French Blue qualifies).

Brian Hamilton · 09-21-09, 08:01 PM

Doc,
Sorry we didn't make it today. The CarMax in Irving basically fed my wife a line to make us drive 4 hours there, only to completely try to screw us over on the trade in. April was so mad she couldn't see straight. Anyway, we'll have to come up there very soon though. Maybe when we both have a free day and I can actually lend a hand! LOL

Laters,

Brian

Doc Kaler · 09-21-09, 08:27 PM

Brain,

Always welcome. I have had a similar experience with my son's car at CarMax a couple of years ago.

Billet GT42r with a stainless Tial housing into 4" exhaust.
Haven't decided on an ecu yet but will either go with the latest Haltech or if I feel like spending some real money, I'll use Motech.
850cc primaries and 1600cc secondaries.
Right now the engine is a large streetport but I may be giving it a bridgeport before it fires up depending on the results of my friends three rotor 911 with port phased rotors and a large street port. The port phased rotors, which would be the alternative to a bridgeport, have a notch cut into them to increase the port timing on both ends without (supposedly) the adverse effects of increased overlap in a turbocharged application. We'll see.

Not only am I hoping to get some good ideas from your build, I could also use some photography lessons from you. Great photos Doc and again, congrats on the new toy.
