    Strange stress crack

    So, I woke up this morning and took the car for a spin. Upon return, I found a major stress crack on the hood - it runs from side to side on the locking pin and has broken clean. Seems like a stress crack that started on the drivers door side and spread very quickly. Anyone seen anything like...

    Steering Question

    I connected my steering linkages tonight and for some reason I can turn way right and barely left. I have the tie rod ends as far as they can go in on the right side and out on the left side, but it doesn’t help. It seems as if it’s somehow too far right. I used the rack that I...

    Carburetor Corrosion

    Any carb experts want to analyze what I found in my Holley 4150? It was running really rough off idle, around 1500-2500, with some surging if you tried to hold steady speed in 2nd or 3rd gear. This is the vacuum secondary side. This stuff looked like battery corrosion - very flaky, crusty. I...

    How small is the SLC, pictures?

    I was wondering if you guys have any side by side pictures with other sport/exotic cars to post. On some pictures I see car appears very small. Does it look like that in person? I see the dimensions are pretty normal, it has to be the overall design that's playing games with my mind. :idea2:

    Could a dual pass radiators flow be rotated 90 degree's?

    I am starting another build and have never liked the standard dual pass set up with the in and out on the passenger side. I am thinking of having a dual pass built that has the in and the out on the bottom so it lines up better with the hoses that will be ran down the middle tunnel. It really...

    Hi All, My car is approaching IVA stage and I have a question about side windows. I have heard that you now must have the side windows installed for the IVA test and the windows themselves must have compliance markings. Does anyone know where to get side windows from with the correct...

    Hippo Ear Mounting?

    I see the hippo ears have a 1/8 inch "platform" on the mounting side. Is the intent to cut a hole in the side window poly for mounting, cut the platform off and mount on top of the poly, or just mount as is on top of the poly? How far forward/aft is best position for most? Thanks

    Why this forum is dissapperaring up its own anus?

    GT40S.COM ? - It used to be international. Now it's just American crap. None of us on this side of the pond bore you lot on that side of the pond with Brexit and Immigration and stupid politics. You seem to think that we might be interested in your stupid diatribe. You - each of you know who...

    LS3 water pump rotation?

    It seems like the water flow on my cooling system is opposite of what I want it to be. I want the flow to exit thru the t-stat and go to the high side of the radiator on the passenger side and return thru the low side of the radiator on the drivers side. Just warmed the engine up to full...

    SL-C Side Skirts Question

    Does anyone have a picture or instructions on how to fit/mount the side skirts on an SL-C. Couldn't find it in the manual or the wiki. I received what I believe to be both sides molded in one piece that it appears needs to be cut in half to install.

    Roundel lights

    I'm at the stage where I am thinking about how many and where I should put these. The ones to illuminate the roundels make sense, and I see original cars with one or sometimes two to do this. However, does anyone have any idea why additional lights are situated further back on the side of the...

    Radiator Venting Overboard

    Gents Ran the engine for the first duration run to check for proper engine cooling. I have a canton fill can with 16lb radiator cap. With the engine at 190 degrees, I note the overflow tube is releasing anti freeze. The hot side of the radiator is warm to the touch, the return side is very...
