Re: Any RCR\'s in So Cal? no blower, NA. either 4 webers or FI (8 throttle bodies) - got to have "the look". i am going to bore to 3.7 and put in a flat plane crank (just have to try it!).

Re: Any RCR\'s in So Cal? scott, you could look at mine ... oops, i don't have it yet either! i don't even have a chassis number yet. but you can see it now if you look at the "rcr mod 4.6" thread. Fran told me about 3 more weeks, still ahead of schedule (how'd he do that?). wes

john i recently ordered a gt40 from Fran @ RCR and asked him to put in a DOHC 4.6 for me. he made the adapter and mounted it. look at his forum (yellow gt40 with a "big lump"). so if you're looking for a car builder who can install a Lexus, if anyone can, he can. he's in Michigan. wes

Re: Bruce Whittaker\'s car delivered looks great to me! do you know if he had to do much modification to the rear deck lid? i ordered a RCR and Fran is putting in my 4.6L that i sent him. Fran says i will have to modify the rear deck lid(damn DOHC heads). thanks for your help. ps: i love...

Yep. open to all. the more the merrier! so gt40 fans, get ready to meet at Knott's. let's hover around the snack bar on Sat @ noon (there he goes again with that noon thing). bring pad, pencil, or cards so we can exchange email addresses. for those that can''t make it, we will post something later.

i love it! now i have another picture of the beast. looks great. i'm so excited. got to stop for a minute and look again. be right back..... fits great.... and you had doubts. told you i should have had it by Knotts! looks great. oops, starting to ramble. now you are going to be inundated with...

bill, i don't have it yet. fran has not told me the #. sent me a picture tho. soon, very soon, how come it always seems longer when you're waiting to rec than trying to send? wes ps: tried to send the photo but it didn"t work?????

see you there. w/o my rcr. said it couldn't be done in time. then it was. can't get it here in time. so i will look at yours! let's meet at the snack bar at noon on sat.or something. Wes.

Fran, how 'bout starting a gt40 rcr club in socal? send someone a list of us in socal. we'll get it started.

Re: Progress Report ordered a porsche transaxle from fran. he is making an adapter to fit my 4.6. good idea about starting a new thread. thanks.

finally! ordered my rcr gt40 in feb. any clues on what i have to do to register this in CA?

Re: Progress Report before i ordered my gt40, i reduced the decision to two companies: decided to visit the usa distributor of one in oregon and rcr in MI. went to detriot. after about ten minutes in his shop looking at the cars and talking with fran, my mind was made up. didn't go to oregon...
