I've been digging around for exhaust components and still trying to sort out a way to get a more exotic sound out of a pushrod V8 without breaking the bank doing a full rebuild to shorten the stroke and some kind of -plane crank. Most folks prefer the V8 rumble, but I'm just really...

I'll be there for the Concourse if I can get the day off.

To cut the SL-C by ~40%/1,000lb mass simply isn't practical or reasonable. You'd be better off buying something else or scratchbuilding your own car. That amount of reduction is like trying to unscramble an omelette. It's not possible, and even if you could, you'd need an engineering degree...

Lol, I got my wife a new car. Gotta stick with the hotrodder stereotype that the wife gets the shiny car while we muck about with the toys. I do most all the cooking so I'd be thrilled with a new kitchen. Somehow I don't think I'm getting both.

Damn, already have a collection of those and I've barely even started.

Nice job. You did great keeping the weave lined up and straight.

Keep your kinks to yourself.

I hate to be that guy, but it "Depends". I'll offer this, though: What do you want for a finished project? Do you want it ASAP or are you going to slave over it for several years and build a show car? How much are you going to spend on the engine, transaxle, paint, interior, carbon fiber...

Thanks, Joel. I didn't know the total length, however it seemed the ability to place the booster in a different location by the master cylinder might be useful.

Space being at a premium in the nose of the SLC thee have been some good solutions to adding a power brake setup, but I haven’t seen anyone use a kit like the below link yet. Any thoughts on these or are the cylinder sizes a problem for the SLC...

Accepted delivery 6 mos ago, no steering yet. Still other parts on backorder, too.

He's got some video on youtube if you look for the SL-C at the Texas Mile.

Is it damaged or something?

No, thank goodness RCR isn’t a company that AFAIK allows people to jump the queue because they threw more money at them, there are certainly plenty of business that play games like that with customers that make you pay more for special treatment.

Awesome. Mine got pushed back a month after it was initially supposed to be ready, so yep, good to be patient.

Dude just summed up life.

No. This is a hypothetical that doesn't even really need to be entertained. What parts would those be, anyway? The bulk of the car chassis is handmade by RCR in-house. The wheels, brakes, and the rest are tried-and-true parts either off production cars or from well-established suppliers...

I understand your not wishing to pry. I'm missing parts and wanting to know if they're in the queue holding up the works, too.

Randy I ordered mine in March of '22, received in December of '23.
