    RCR40 cooling system tube insulation

    Randy, at the suggestion of others on this forum, instead of wrapping them in insulation I had my RCR supplied tubes ceramic coated by Jet-Hot. I wanted to save as much space in the spine as possible and the specs of the heat reduction of ceramic coating were greater than the reduction realized...

    Windshield wiper mount location

    Hi Randy, I think all of the spiders come as based on the “original” GT40’s which were RHD so the wiper motor location was on the right side of the spider. That’s the way mine came. Moving it to the opposite side just required careful measuring (and a bit of trust in my abilities having never...

    Hi all, I'm in the process of planning out my dash switch arrangement for my RCR40. Specifically what type of switch to use to move between the two fuel pumps. I was at first considering a separate switch for each but then started thinking of using either an on/off/on or an off/on/on single...
