A lot more exciting!

Dash turned out good, I like the modern look.

He was warming up the tires... Did pretty good overtaking the other car. My son could care less about fast cars but my daughter... well let's say that the apple dosen't fall far from the tree.

Well a lot has been going on since I last posted. I have been working on the 40 but I also purchased 7.5 acres in Aledo Texas and I have been working on the weekends to remove trees that have grown up around the 2 acre pond. While cutting down the trees I had an accident with the chain saw (I...

Looks good, they will work fine.

The 8 stack may add 7 to 12%, if you figure 12% I think that you will be fine. Use 85% duty cycle, if the 8 stack only adds 7% the duty cycle drops a little which is fine. I don't like to be over 85% duty cycle. My Harrop Hurricane 58mm system on a (as delivered) LS3 CT 525 added 10% over 4bbl...

Ricky, Agree with raising the idle speed slightly, depending on the cam it may have to be raised even more. My engine wont even run below 1050 rpm.

Search for fuel injector calculator (there are many sites) or go here https://fuelinjectorclinic.com/flow-calculator. Enter hp, # of injectors, duty cycle 80 to 90%, fuel pressure (typically around 43lbs) and if turbo, na or sc and you will get your answer, some of the calculators will give size...

Money is insignificant compared to your time and passion that went into your outstanding creation.

I do not think that the Borlas will work since the bolt pattern may be different. My 58mm Borla on a Dart 401 Windsor and my Harrop Hurricane 58mm cross ram on a LS3 pictured below. I think that you can get different sizes of throttle bodies for either setup.

Idle stop adjustment could affect your low rpm when butterflies slam shut. Worth checking to make sure idle adjustment is good and throttle bodies are still balanced side to side and one to another. Cold starting could be okay since the ecu opens the IAC so that extra air is supplied during...

Looking Good!

Bill, It looks like you have your suspension set to ride height, if so then when the suspension droops your heim joint will bind since it is almost touching now, you may need to add a spacer to lower the heim joint some.

I started working with tools around 11 years old and I think I have personal experience with at least 14 of the tool technology definitions listed, funny because it is so true.

Mick, Is this steering unit installed in a RCR40? Pic 61 looks like a RCR pedal box. If so it looks like it solves the height issue with the steering shaft being too low for BIG feet (shaft looks higher). Rick

No apologies needed. Enjoy the site and good luck with your search for a GT40.

I have seen a few Tornado's and all have been vary nice builds. I have not seen any Southeren GT's in person but from what I have read on this site they are very comparable to the Tornado in construction and service. I believe that both companies are responsive to their customers and offer a...

Simon, Thank you for your reply! Howard, Since you are about 4 hours away from me I could ship it to you or you could drive up and visit for a couple of hours and drive home with it. Email me at gt40 rick @ yahoo . com (no spaces) for contact information.

Simon, Howard has indicated that he would like it if you do not want it, so I assume that you are passing on my offer, is this correct? I just want to be fair since I offered it to you first.
