Yes, I'm doing my annual Winter maintenance, so my SLC is ready for care free driving this Spring. For example, change the oil, lube the heim joints, clean up the engine compartment, and tweak/refine the little things on my punch list. One of the things on the preventative maintenance list...

Here is a PIC of the removable oil cooler. You can see the on the back side of the cooler that the cooling fan and its power relay are part of the assembly. On the inboard side, there is an 1/8" aluminum plate mounting bracket. Here is the oil cooler mounted in the car. The bottom...

Its cold outside, so its time to do some winter maintenance on my SLC. I engineered my SLC to be "cheap to keep" and easy to maintain. For example, I designed the oil cooler mounting system so it can be removed quickly and without an oily mess. How quickly you ask? How about 4...

Glueing the "anchor" to the bottom of the dash did make a tight seal and it works well -> Click Here I added an inclined shelf in the anchor to gradually reduce the volume of the plenum toward the ends to balance the air flow all along the length of the defrost vent. This turned out to be not...

If you drive in the rain, the front cup holders become aquariums. So I drilled a small drain hole in each of them.

David, You have asked the question of questions. Like asking the origin of the universe, or the meaning of life, or why do men have nipples. To know the unknowable, you must consult the Oracle (Fran). May the Force be with you... Fran, I've always wondered as well. Can you enlighten...

What are the dimensions of your radiator (height x width x depth)?

It was great meeting you guys at SEMA!

I'm settled in the Las Vegas Convention Center for SEMA. I'm the Grand Lobby, just down the ramp from SEMA Central. The Grand Lobby is a long corridor between the Central Hall and the Meeting Rooms. See the attached map.

We made it to Vegas! Here is my SLC in Valet parking at the NYNY hotel.

We had a long drive across the mid-West yesterday. We finally grabbed a hotel late at night somewhere in the southwest territory. From our waffle at breakfast, we are pretty sure we are in Texas

I'm off to SEMA! We loaded up my SLC into the Charlotte Speed Shop Trailer and drove to Memphis, TN yesterday. Tony and I had a rack of ribs and few brews on Beale St to finish off a great day. Click here To see a short video.

My SLC has been sponsored by Zendex Tools for an exhibit booth at SEMA 2017. Zendex Tools is the company that builds/sells the GoJak product. GoJaks are a great jacking system that places a cradle jack under each tire and allows you to rotate your car or move it sideways in your garage. My...

While I was at RTM Productions in Nashville, TN for the Velocity Channel PowerNation video shoot, I also did a segment for their internet program called PowerNation Garage. The PowerNation Garage segment was published this week. Here is the -> video link It includes another shameless plug for...

Hot Rod Madness is an online video series featuring custom and unique cars along the South East region of the USA. They were at the recent Charlotte AutoFair and did a short segment on my SLC. Click here to view the video OOPS: I mentioned the SLC's NASA racing history, but said 2011 instead...

Yes, the cover fits the older NSX models

Here are some PICs of the NSX cover on my SLC (with the hippo mirrors).

Since an engine hoist takes up a lot of room in your garage and you will hopefully only use it once, I suggest you rent one when you are ready to drop your power-train in the SLC. Many rental hoists break down into chunks that fit into your car for transport home. There is lots of room in...

I just bought a car cover a month ago. I measureed my SLC's length/width and then compared the dimensions to other mid-engine cars. The NSX is a similar size. I ordered a Cover Craft "general fit"for a NSX for about $150. It fully covers the car, but it is a bit snug. I like it snug so it...
