    I'm new here

    I should add that the lead time is not RCR's fault. I first ordered an engine from Summit. After several months they canceled my order. Then I ordered an engine from BluePrint. They came through but it took a long time because of their back log. RCR received the engine in June 2023.

    I'm new here

    I don't know. I won't be able to walk for at least another 2 months because of a torn quadriceps and strained iliotibial. So, I told them it's ok with me to move my car back in the queue.

    Fling SLC Build Thread

    Hi Michael, I know you've on from this project, but could I ask which exhaust manifolds you used. I am also building a side exhaust SLC. Thanks, Rob

    Electric water pump

    Hi, Newbie Rob H here. Has anyone used the Davies Craig #8670 adapter to delete the mechanical water pump? Also, has anyone used the Infinity Box PWM Mastercell option to run an electric water pump?

    Side exhaust

    Thanks Ken. That's what Fran said also. Since they go straight down, I think it will be easier to shield the heat. By the way, I have been going through your posts. I enjoyed your driving videos. I'm also learning a lot from your build. I haven't driven COTA but I did watch the F1 race from turn...

    Side exhaust

    My SLC will have side exhaust. I'm looking at the Hooker Blackheart Shorty headers, but I don't know if they fit. Instead, I could do the plastic mockup. Does anyone have advice on headers and exhaust design for side exit exhaust?

    Electric Water Pump How to.

    Hi, Newbie Rob H here. Has anyone used the Davies Craig #8670 adapter for the MWP delete? Also, has anyone used the PWM Mastercell option to run the EWP 150?

    Non-glycol coolant

    Thanks for the comments guys. I have been taking my modified Lotus Exige to Sebring for several years now. Howard, I have been using approximately the same coolant mixture as you, but maybe less antifreeze. That has been working just fine even in very high heat and humidity. I was just wondering...

    Non-glycol coolant

    It never freezes here in Orlando. Do any of you have experience with non-glycol coolants like VP Stay Frosty? Of course, the boiling temp is only 212F but the specific heat capacity is about 30% more than 50/50 water and glycol. Do you think the higher heat capacity is worth it? I hope this...

    I'm new here

    My name is Rob and I'm new here. I ordered an SLC kit about two years ago. I'm not at all worried about the lead time because I tore my quadriceps last year and I'm still on bed rest. So, I couldn't work on the car any time soon anyway. I've been spending time going through your build logs. They...
