These guys are great for stainless tubes and bends. Good prices and they have their own line and also carry Vibrant tubes. They will also cut and put really nice beads on the ends. https://www.verociousmotorsports.com/vm_home

Continuing to work on the first start punch list. This post covers connecting the oil lines from the dry sump to the engine. The goal was to find as direct a path to limit head pressure created by too many elbows and to keep the oil lines from being too close to the exhaust downpipes. When I...

Another small item to install was the evaporator drain. Vintage air provides some 1/2” hose and a tee to design a drain tube. I added two 90 degree elbows to the layout. Considered routing the drain tube either in front of or behind the optional side impact bar base. Finally decided to mount it...

Great job and congrats getting to the finish line!

Alex, Check out Kurtiss’s post #282 and his link to his wiring document. This is a great reference if you are using the Infinitybox system… https://www.gt40s.com/threads/kurtiss-gt-r.51116/page-14

Alex, the dune buggy crowd sprays a dry lube on the CV boots. Maybe applying this to the steering rack will help avoid tears. I have a can of this and sprayed my CV boots so going to apply it to the steering rack boots..

Nice job Alex!

Continuing to work on the first start punch list. This post covers connecting a transaxle cooler and thermostat to the Graziano. I debated whether to install a trans cooler since I really won’t be tracking my SLC. I learned that a stock Audi R8 includes a cooler and thermostat so figured to...

That’s an older version than what has been shipping with the kits for quite a while now.

Murray from Australia ordered these and I believe they fit, but not sure if he has the identical rack you have or I have.

Alex, Not sure if these will work, but they fit the Unisteer Rack that I have. My car was delivered in 2019. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/uis-620270

Hi Alex, Me and a few other builders turned the heater core around. Here is a link to how I did it. Post #117-#119. It is a bit of work to do, but worked out well. https://www.gt40s.com/threads/joels-sl-c-build-thread.52098/page-6 You could also cut the front of the case off and put the holes...

Mark, congrats on getting this fix. Wondering which line was condensing. The #6 or #10 line? From what I’ve read the #10 line is the one that could condensate, but just curious.

Randy, they should have the instructions on the site posted somewhere. I should have mentioned this that it uses a pulse or momentary switch to trigger the motion. I would think a momentary rocker switch would work great, press one way to lock, the other way to unlock.

Those C8 calipers look nice. If I can’t get the provided SLC calipers to to work I may go down that route. I plan on doing something similar to Randy. Haven’t tried it out yet, but figured I already have the calipers mounted so want to see if I can use them. I am running an electrical PDM with...

Sorry you got scammed. On the positive it was an inexpensive lesson. I require sellers to accept PayPal, if you don’t receive your purchase they will refund it. Ask for them to send you a PayPal invoice so you have a record of the transaction then you pay it.

Great Job Randy, I’m enjoying your build thread and all the detailed updates.

This post covers fabricating the speed sensor brackets. Back on post #449 I installed the tone rings on the CV joints in order to pick up wheel speed. If you have a 2019 kit or later this is probably not necessary because the updated uprights and hubs include tone rings with speed sensors...

Ryan, thanks so much! Appreciate all the detail. I may do this as well. Will you use a clear coat to protect it from UV? If so, what coating would you use?

Ryan, great work! Any additional info you can provide on the process would be appreciate.
