    Reducing the Play in the Steering Linkage

    Problem solved!.....If the play returns you might make sure you have High Collar Lock Washers under your socket head cap screws.....makes a difference in maintaining the integrity of the torque on the bolts.

    Pedal Assembly Modifications

    Hi Mark, In the third photo of your original post, it looks like your widest point on the right is the two bolts and nuts at the anterior (to the car) aspect of your attachment of the DBW to the bracket......I did a different application (LMP-1) using the same pedal assembly and had an...

    Tool chest

    Those are some great deals. Here's a two-story toolbox! It would seem that, if you use a circular staircase, you could go up another level or two. You can never have too many tools......or too many toolboxes! David

    Tilton 3 way Resevoir vs Wilwood Master Cylinder Hose Adapter

    Ran across this photo and thought someone might be interested. I had sent it to a friend regarding the use of Oeteker clamps. Illustrates the Tilton reservoir attached to the gray Tilton hoses, which are in turn adapted (via metal adapters) to the smaller red Wilwood hoses that go to the...

    Hi Jim, Congratulations on the creation of another incredible automobile! Would love to see the car this weekend but unfortunately not going to the Quail. Will it be on display Saturday or Sunday? Seems like it belongs on the Concept Car Lawn, like your P4/5 was back when it was...

    Scotts build thread

    Hi Scott, I thought the side scoop in the rear in your last creation looked good......gave it more finesse.... broke it up a bit and made it look less heavy and "chunky." Just my opinion, David

    Every Major Race-Winning Ford GT40 Will Be at Pebble Beach This Year

    Dean's GT-R build thread

    More cooling for the oil can be accomplished using an integrated radiator/fan unit, but it takes up space. If someone needs more air forced through their oil cooler radiator without a fan, a shroud can be fabricated out of aluminum sheeting. In my case, the radiator needed to be mounted on...

    "Allan and I did the same thing (sleeving my shifter cables with those high temp sleeves AND a reflective foil on top) and the shifter cable still melted because of it's close proximity to my headers. Quickly." Valuable information Preston! Just wondering: Did you have ceramic coating...
