    fuse panel relays

    Here ya go Pat, hope this helps. The picture is not the greatest , let me know if you cant read the label. What did you end up doing with your engine stabilizer ? I don't think mine would fit with the RF crossover exhaust. Oh . Pat, if you did not notice the sticker does not line up with the...

    valve cover woes

    The bolts are just finger tight, no gaskets yet. I am still building my car.I thought grinding on my covers was not going to do it, that or i would go through. Maybe your brand of rockers was not as bulky. Mine were scorpion rollers.

    valve cover woes

    Hi Pat, your running steel chromed covers though right ? The Gurney Weslake covers are very thick aluminum and come up at an angle toward the rocker at the inboard side. Now when I pull my cover bolts out the cover slides down and then hits the rockers. I did no grinding on the covers Chuck ,and...

    valve cover woes

    Hi Chuck, I went through the exact same thing with the Gurney Weslake's. I had aluminum roller rockers and they have a larger area at the pushrod end. This causes them to hit the covers so bad you cant even align up the bolt holes. I resold my rockers on eBay, and bought a set of comp cams pro...

After they had the motor balanced, they attached the pressure plate , indexed it and fine balanced that to the engine. Mine is 28oz...

    Champ Car Racer Hurt at Road America

    Lets hope he pulls through, another article stated he was doing about 180mph and a large deer struck the right front corner of the car and and then hit the cockpit area. The car remained at full throttle and crashed into the tire wall. Cristiano is always very pleasant and polite off the track.

    Review of RF085

    Maybe between the 3 of you agreeing, you could post a basic setup with stock suspension parts for the other owners to put on the car rather than starting with the RF specs. I would rather have it aligned the first time with something that would work better. Also Simon Hameka put a different...

    Roaring Forties Update - July 2006

    "There is no inventory system, there is no logical parts numbering sequence. or even complete pick lists for the sub assemblies that are documented." Hi Owen, good luck in the "New RF " . Your statement I posted above would show why the past "Old RF " customers were always short parts and or...

    Tragic accident in Germany.

    Looks like a front impact, and a fire for sure. The dash is melted, all the stainless is black and the front susp. is gone.I saved the pic and then enlarged it. The two doors are over by the guard rail, the top areas sheered off of both.Terrible tragedy.
