I mounted a roll over valve just above the tank on the engine side of the bulkhead with a K&N breather filter on the end. This is similar to the setup I had on my drag truck as well as on my hot rod - never had an issue and they are both garage kept. They both had the check valve built into...

Well, finding ways to fill my time while I wait for my wiring kit. Have now plumbed the lift pump to the shocks (need to swap out the springs and install the hydraulic pucks before I can terminate the other end), mounted the recently received SL-C steering wheel (that is one nice looking unit)...

Well, there is something to be said for getting up early on a Saturday being able to get some work done on the car before anyone gets up. Started with the bulkhead panel in back of the fuel cell. When I went to the metal store on Friday, found some drop aluminum sheet in 2x4 sizes and picked...

Thanks Cam. The braked lines came loose fit and I just put on the clips. Am taking some time to go through cleaning some stuff up, so will put that on my list of things to do.

I have spares from some other projects since they always send both sized reservoirs and I have yet to have one leak. Had a list for the weekend and ended up getting it done between Friday and Saturday. Routed the heat and AC hoses to the panel I made in the rear, now just waiting for final...

Another day, a few more things knocked off. Added a couple of panels for mounting fuel pumps and surge can and mounted the pumps, regulator and one of the filters. Seemed to have lost the cushion clamps for the second filter so had to order them (the filter has been sitting in the garage for a...

A little more time today in the garage and got lots done. Mounted all of the master cylinder reservoirs, pedals, battery ground and cables. With the exception of wiring (my wiring package hasn't shipped yet from the supplier) the only thing left up front is the radiator hoses (look to arriving...

Been a while since I posted, but been a while since I had a real day to do any work, so it has been moving at a snails pace. But last weekend it finally felt like I was getting somewhere. After taking what seemed like forever to figure out how I wanted the AC unit and lines to be run, building...

Been a few weeks since I got out to the garage, but boxes have been coming with parts for AC fittings, fuel system and other miscellaneous items. Ended up going with a NRG setup and an existing Sparco wheel that I had. Fits nicely with the column and column trim. Also got working on...

Did some research. The black square thing is some sort of processor to control the heater. Don't believe it has a thermal sensor so should be able to mount it anywhere. I think the vacuum valve is spare parts

Thanks for the info. Like the way you worked the lines out the sides with the bulkheads. I have similar ones for mine. Need to get back under there and fight it out some more. I get the heat lines going over the top. Do your AC lines run under the unit and then up the foot box? Already...

Hadn't gotten that far in the thought process to have an exact routing yet, but I couldn't see a good way to get it out of the side and saw some real estate just above the steering rack that looked free. One line goes to the condenser, so that would be easy and the second line would route with...

Came up with another AC question that perhaps someone can help with. I have the Vintage air kit and it came with two heater control valves - 1 vacuum controlled and 1 electrical. I think we use the electric but wanted to be sure. Also, on the harness that plugs into the electrical valve is a...

Working on the AC today with moderate success. Yes, the main unit is secured under the dash, but currently only using 2 brackets. Very tight under there, but I think I can get a couple more in now that it is secured in location. In order for the disc on the back side of the #6 line to clear...

Finally finished cleaning up from the hurricane so got a little work done today. Worked to get the drivers seat/pedals/steering column all set in place. Rough cut the dash to fit around the roll bar and then mounted the pedals and column. Holding off on mounting the seats until I decide if I...

So far, Mopar Performance has been great help in getting that part square. The tech support folks have been great at providing information on the Gen 3 Hemi line of products. Before this, the only option was to scavenge a motor and harness out of a wrecked car and scab it in. Just got the...

Made it through that one. Bunch of branches down and trees down in the neighborhood but all is well at our house. Pretty weird having the howling winds and stuff hitting the roof all night, but good riddance to Irma. Have a little more clean up to do and then I can get back to work...

yes we are looking to be an interesting few days

We are in the middle of the state by Orlando. Currently projecting 85+ mph winds. Big trees in the back yard are my main concern

Re: Mike's Mopar SL-C Build Battening down the hatches here in Florida, but in the middle of storm prep the door bell rings and instead of a neighbor looking for a hand I find this pretty cool looking box. Not going to do anything, but having the first piece of the drive train is one step...
