I should add that it is exactly like the one that I used in my GTD40 except for the hardware that is included for a ZF.

You can have the one that was supplied for my RCR 40 if you pay for shipping, includes the ends for a ZF transaxle. I am traveling now but I can post a photo on Saturday.

Exactly! It took 755hp to put down those numbers since the ZR1 has an added 105hp over the ZO6 but not to worry the GT40 still has a weight advantage of 1,000lbs, smaller frontal area and the engine (weight) is in the rear, it boils down to physics. The shame is that a 2018 ZR1 is only...

^^^^^ guilty as charged. :)

Well I think that it is a valid comparison and I like and own both cars so I will compare them apples to apples even with the ac on. :) I am finishing my RCR40 625/620 so we will see soon enough since I am going to take both to the Texas mile and the 1/4 mile drag. ZO6 time/speed in 1/4 mile...

Thank you for the compliment. The ear-to-ear grin is why I love these cars, having a bad day, just go for a ride and life is better. I am going to raise the performance bar a little higher with my RCR build (from my GTD build). :) Rick

Like others out there I am progressing on my build but I have not been posting since I have been very busy lately. I will resume posting about my build next weekend. I believe that the interest for the GT40 and Cobra is still strong but there are fewer people who have the skills to undertake...

Pictures below will help clarify my dash to door fitment issue mentioned in my previous post. Rick

I had to modify my dash quite a bit to get it like I wanted it. My RCR GT40 is right hand drive so my dash is different than the left hand drive dash RCR GT40's. The ends of the dash that go down toward the sill only go half way down to the sill, they stop about 4" before the sill. I didn't like...

Ian, I read the site very often, post when it may be of use and nearing the end of my RCR build. I had back surgery last December and just resumed working on the GT40 last month. I will resume posting about my build in a couple of weeks. Rick

Rob, Since you are from Va. Beach I was wondering if you are related to Bobby Twine? I worked at the Ford plant until July 2006. Rick Merz

I had my G50-52 drilled for fittings with orifices in them so that oil would spray on all the gears and the ring gear by Powerhouse in '95. I used a large 40 micron filter before a Tilton oil pump that supplied 50psi to the orifices.

Not ready to register yet but good to know!

Bob, You will not sell Rod an ERA designed radiator and Ron Davis can not make him one since it is ERA's "proprietary" design, correct? Is it okay for Rod to look at an ERA supplied radiator and make his own drawing, then give that drawing to Ron Davis so that Ron can fabricate a radiator...

Bill, I feel your pain. Fran 's guy did a beautiful job making my headers but the #4 and #7 pipe came in contact with the rear clam and the pipe that crosses over going into the collector was a 1" higher than the rear clam under the window area. My solution was to cut and modify pipes #4 and...

"I'm exited to begin my adventure building a RCR GT40. I'm very fortunate to get the car from RCR. The original owner was having it built turn-key when he had back surgery and can no longer get into low profile cars." I hope that's not true... I just had my restrictions lifted from having...

Rod Posted "As for a comparison with Clinton being impeached, for his “private life”, well, let’s hope history repeats itself. The differences here are the alleged physical threats against the life of Stormy Daniels, $130,000 of hush money paid by Comrade Trump’s personal lawyer and the...
