Now that I have almost reached my journey's end of building an RCR40 MK1, I have a bunch of things left over and it's all FREE except for the carburetor. With the exception of the carb, these items are all brand new and never been on the car. Shipping to you from S.E. Michigan at your...

I'm have a little trouble understanding exactly how this shifter works. Namely how to get it in reverse gear. I was assuming that, because the shifter shaft seems to be spring loaded, it would need to be pushed down and then pulled back so that the pin on the shaft would clear the boss on the...

Thanks to this forum, I have the hole drilling process figured out. Now I'm getting ready to fit the side windows & headlamp covers on my RCR40. What tool(s) have some of you used to do a rough cut of these things? TIA, Rod

Do I need to use a special drill bit to safely drill the holes in the side windows & headlamp covers? Any other tips on doing this? TIA, Rod

I live in a very rural area about an hour west of Detroit, Michigan (USA). Today, about 1:30pm, at least 10 GT40s along with a newer Ford GT passed me going the other way. I was rather stunned at the sight. Interestingly, this happened on a 2-lane paved country road during a heavy rainstorm...

I'm nearing the installation of my windshield and really like the finished appearance of some type of rubber trim around the outside edge. I asked Don, the previous poster, where he got his but he doesn't know because it came with his windshield. I've also seen it on some other cars on this...

Hey Gang, I'm looking for some recommendations for an Air Cleaner Assembly for my RCR MK1 w/sbf 363 Carbed engine. I have had an Edelbrock 41153 on order for over a year with no promise of a shipping date yet. Prestige Motorsports recommended a 14" K&N 66-3040 but that seems too large. Air...

I opted for the Quad Tail Lamps when I ordered my RCR40 because I liked the look. Now, I'm trying to figure out how to properly wire them. They each have a double filament bulb. I'm assuming that the Red ones are for Tail & Brake lights. Are the Amber ones then used for Turn & Park the same...

RCR40/ 363 SBF/ Safir Clutch Pkg/ ZF Transaxle. Admittedly, it's been a long time since I've wired a starter motor. I'm trying to figure out which wires go where. In the attached picture of the starter, you'll see the heavy 0ga wire directly from the + post of the battery, a red wire w/yellow...

Looking for suggestions for some safety harnesses for my RCR40. This will be for a street car with no intentions of ever taking it to the track. It gets really confusing trying to decide what to use with all the different brands and styles out there. 4 pt, 5 pt, 6 pt, V-Type, Bolt-In, Floor...

I'm sorting through the front-to-rear wiring on my RCR40 and plan on running the rear wiring through the tunnel. I notice that most of the sending unit wiring, with the tach being the only exception, appears to be in shielded cable. My question being...is all that shielding necessary? In order...

Ceramic Coated 1 3/4" Headers to fit 351 SBF. Mounting flanges are drilled for both 2" & 3" Ports. I don't know who built these but they appear well made. They also don't appear to have ever been used. A few small scratches here & there probably from a mock-up installation. Also, the LH...

Probable dumb question, but which way do the CV Drive Shafts go? Splined/Slip Joint end toward the transaxle or the wheel? TIA, Rod

I know this topic has probably been beaten to death, but I couldn't find any specifics when I searched. I'm looking for recommendations on a Remote Oil Filter system for my RCR40. TIA, Rod

Ref: RCR40, Safir SBF Clutch Pkg. with a Girling Slave Cylinder. I'm spinning my wheels trying to figure out what Hose and Fittings I need to link the clutch hard line to the slave cylinder. I figured someone here might lead me down the right path without me making a guess, and possibly...

Ref: RCR40 & 363sbf. Do I need the 2 groove pulley on the water pump, or can I run the A/C compressor directly off the crank pulley as mocked up in the attached picture? TIA, Rod

Ref: RCR40, 363 SBF, ZF Trans, Safir SBF Clutch Kit (dual disc McLeod w/adjustable T/O Bearing). I'm wondering how much no-load clearance there should be between the throwout bearing and the clutch pressure plate actuating arms? With everything installed on the engine, I have almost no feeling...

I need some help determining what size bolts to use in my ZF per the attached picture (Note that my ZF is shown upside down in the picture). These will be the 2 top bolts that go through the bellhousing and then thread into the ZF. Also, any recommendations on how to assemble? I'm assuming...

Need a recommendation for sbf engine mounts on a RCR40 with a 363ci/500hp Dart block. TIA, Rod
