So how much weight do these underbody coatings add to the car? Thanks!

Would you like me to ask Mr. Glickenhaus?

Great! Are you planning to use the SL-C mainly on the track, or the road? How does your 4G63T respond? Does it make power mainly up high, or is it usable across the revband? Any ideas as to how to cool everything off (intake air as well as the engine) in your sleek and small SL-C? I thought...

Jim Glickenhaus has a nice setup with his cameras substituting for rear-view mirrors. The image is below. Mr. Glickenhaus is a manufacturer and is on this forum: you could ask him about it! :-)

The engines we install in our Superlight cars are more and more coming equipped with 48 volt electrical systems. When we install an engine with a 48 volt electrical system into our Superlight cars, what will we need to change? What changes will be beyond the owner/builders, and need to be from...

I know, I know, it won't power an SL-C. But come on, a supercharged, 125 cc V-10 engine? That the guy milled out all the parts himself from billet? This thing is too cool. You gotta watch the video. Model V10 engine electronic fuel injection - YouTube

Yay!!

Did you ask Fran what purposes the "cup holders" serve? Just wondered. :)

What is Fran's background in Ye Olde Countrye? Maybe his family has a crest or something! :-)

Magnificent! Question: because the exhaust system, as configured, runs such restrictive routes, did you consider flipping the engine's cylinder heads and running the exhaust pipes out the middle of the engine, in a "hot-V" configuration? (Yes, I know it costs money.) What would be the...
