Nice update, Howard. Fuel surge tank install this coming off-season? A car of your caliber that is being tracked almost necessitates one.

SCG-003. Love at first sight.

Cool read! Thanks!

I've looked into options like this for my build. Can you input music in stereo through these and still communicate?

Incredibly beautiful. Where are you drawing turbo intake air from? Fully exposed cone filter?

What's under the wrap? Primer or a proper paint job? That's a $10k+ difference.

My 21 lb is the B3121 at 550 CCA, it is too big for your purposes at 5.2" wide (but still a TINY car battery, easily fits in the backbone tunnel of my GTM). The 17 lb is the B2317 with a 4" width, 475 CCA. The B2618 shows a 3.5" width, 18.5 lb, 472 CCA.

Which battery are you going with? I really like my Braille AGM batteries, 21 lb in my GTM easily spins my LS3, 17 lb in my Esprit (turbo I-4). Mount them in any orientation.

Chuck, I am confident that you have the ability to mill or otherwise fabricate a housing for it to pass concours scrutiny that it is an original Lucas module. A pre-soak in The Glenlivet prior to installation would further assure Lucas authenticity...

Beautiful wiring diagrams! I would expect nothing less with your build thus far... I would encourage you to install a Ford (or other) fuel inertia cutoff module between your 5A ignition fuse and the fuel pump relay 86 trigger pin. Keeps things less exciting if you have an incident that...

Says Hendrix!

I wouldn't even consider an iron block in an SL-C or similar car that already has a rear weight bias. That engine is best for a car that only knows how to drive straight.

Unless the builder wants to go back to the original ungated shifter. Builder probably went with the Graziano gearbox.
