    How to do rear alignment?

    and the all important make sure the rack is centered with the frame, not necessarily with the rack itself if it is off centered.

    Anodized Chassis

    was leafing through one of carrol smith's books and he said to use zinc chromate on aluminum. i was over looking at an rv7 build and the guy had spray canned some on the interior of his aircraft and it didn't look too bad. kind of a rough texture though.

    Anodized Chassis

    i was reading the how to prevent a/c corrosion because i was interested, and they refer in most all cases to water being the main culprit, salt, mud, battery acid, and didn't see anything pertaining to a well kept race car. they even referred to coatings covering up or masking problems.

    thanks erik. had no idea of the cost of rebuild, $200 or $2k, do it yourself or send it in. may have to rethink the wish list, that is some serious racing.

    Remote engine oil filter location on RCR with Coyote 5.0lt

    i wouldn't sweat the small lines too much, i had a cobra with -10 lines, probably total 10-12 feet through oil cooler and filter and the engine lived. i changed to shorter routing and -12 and removed the cooler and picked up pressure. long as you don't use the hard 90's you should be fine, but...

    Remote engine oil filter location on RCR with Coyote 5.0lt

    if it is on the scavenge side i think an oberg style up high would work good for checking debris. on the pressure side i would prefer something like a 100 micron canister prior to the cooler, then another smaller micron prior to the engine. otherwise you have to hope nothing comes loose in the...

    Preliminary dyno results for my SLC's engine

    I had an '02 ZO6 with the ABS, and really didn't see any reason for it, til one day. Driving in a heavy rain down the highway, I could feel the ABS actively working, keeping the hydroplaning tires in contact with the pavement and the car in a straight line. Very impressive. Then along comes a...

    Dean's In car video from Run n Gun

    Be careful here. My JBL has a 20:1 steering rack and it is correct for the suspension. If you change to a quicker ratio at speed the transition is very quick. I tried 16 & 18:1 ratios and it was white knuckle! The designer told me I would kill myself and I believe he was right. At slow...

    Camber & Rod End Adjustment

    I don't know how it is adjusted, but if you determine you need to adjust, once the tire is in the air take another measurement, then using that measurement turn your joint then measure again without dropping the corner. get your desired adjustment amount in the air then set it down and measure...
