Fascinating to see the transition to carbon, and especially the bottom shock mount that ramps the bottom of the shock upward through a roller channel versus a bellcrank. Some major top-notch designing there.

Great! Looks like you're on a good track. This chassis is looking bulletproof.

Are the upper control arm mounting points (plate steel) being reinforced?

Hi Devin. Welcome to the site. Sounds like you've got a good start on what you want to do. Please continue with the build photos, and good luck on you project.

Not an Active Power owner, but you could find the Corvette OEM spring rates, and then compare the OEM Corvette weight to what you estimate your project will weigh, and then go from there. Obviously you should be able to reduce the spring-rate if using all the Corvette suspension components (in...

+1 Andrew. I'm using this Holley set-up, except using speed-density instead of alpha-N. I'd like to PM you and get an idea what your fuel chart looks like if you don't mind. I wouldn't mind trying out the alpha-N. I don't seem to have any issues with the speed-density, but have tied the 8 vacuum...

Thought I'd throw this option out there. I'm using the Holley HP EFI set-up (installed in 2012). Allows a LOT of configurations (e.g. using the old LS crank sensor with a new cam sensor, which I never thought would work), and after some considerable fiddling, I got it working fine on my...

Different time back then. Heck, event the F1 paddock girls are a memory now.

And then there is the Porsche 930 as well. Inverted, it lowers the engine, but then a dry sump is preferred (but not absolutely required if the assembly is raise up a bit) at that point due to the elevation of the engine. Gear ratios are great for V8 torque. Synchronizers leave a bit to be...

Photoshop is only limited by one's imagination.

Which turbos (size) was used for this. Looks quite exciting!

"If a gas or coal plant blows up...." If only it was as simple as that, and the only concern with fossil fuels. All powerplants have risks. A simple comparison of damage/deaths caused by fossil plants vs the nuke plants, and our current climate issue makes the comparison more stark with each...

My observation on the SBF is that there is always some variability on manifold fit (especially the interaction of the end gaskets and side gaskets, manifold used, gasket materials, etc)), and that it is never a slam-dunk on whether to enhance the sealing with a sealant or not. I've always had to...

Thanks Bob. That pointed out some obvious stuff I hadn't thought of on the non-linear character of bias in deceleration.

I love the discussion in the media about pumping water from the Mississippi to the west. Uhhhh, yeah, right. I guess putting things off in addressing climate change, due to cost, hasn't turned out to be very cost effective. Can't wait for the price of produce to skyrocket when these farms...

I liked the scene in "The Matrix" where humanity is compared to a virus the consumes it's host or it's resources (host) until it is no longer viable.

Correction, your front caliper piston size is about 75% of mine.

I can only go by experience here, but without a servo in your case (assuming that is a booster), I feel you will have to use some inordinate amount of leg pressure for braking. For example, I do not utilize a booster on my car (similar to the '40 in configuration), so I use a 4-pot system with...
