1. Rebleed brakes. Tilton video suggests 3 man crew and to do F/R passenger side at same time (inners then outers), then driver side.
At 6:10 or so in my video I did not grab enough pedal and went off track into the sand. Didn't lock them up so I guess I did not push hard enough.
2. Test...
Loaded and ready for AMP.
62 and overcast tomorrow. Chilly ride up, great day for the track. If this goes well mechanically, I'm ready for a light sanding, a few filler spots, and RDE Customs in Kennesaw/Woodstock to spray it.
Brakes work. Thought for the longest time I would go with a power brake setup. Adjusted bias bar, bedded the pads. Now they work well. Got to get used to pedal effort before I hit the stoppers at AMP. 140 down to 30 into a hairpin turn 1 will take some time to figure out.
But enjoying the...
Track day footage. Boring and slow, but I do not want to wreck because my 3 year build process is not complete or I forgot something like tightening a motor mount.
Track testing today. A couple easy laps. Brakes require lots of push, but hey, they are manual. Only weird thing was I had gas shooting out my VVR vent check valve for a few minutes in the pits. Popping the gas cap off did not remedy this. Called it a day when it happened after driving from...
Managed to fix my AC leak ( I think). Large leak from low side schrader valve and small leak from high side. No leaks at my crimps after I fixed the one at low pressure fitting at compressor. Got to get another can of R-134 to test it. Was blowing cold.
Coolant leak fixed with cheap hose...
Or just say scru that and go to MT.

I did not have my MSO when the car shipped. I thought I lost it. Fran to the rescue and mailed it out 2 years after I bought the kit. Did not want the hassle of GA registration. These folks handled...
Coolant staying inside the lines.
AC must be leaking somewhere. Used dye and could not find it. Might bring it to a shop and get a good set of gauges on it. Body and finish is last step. Amazing how the ride comfort eases in once the springs are broken in a little.
Ideal hose clamps. That’s what the Lemans car has. They never leak. For some reason I had it in my head that T-bolt clamps were superior. Maybe in price. 9 in my front setup. 15 in my rear. Going around replacing them all. Nothing but leaks. Yup, I even replaced almost all of them once...
Mine was just leaking. The whole unit can spin and depending on how tight the fitting is into the puck, the stainless line can twist it loose. I put thread sealant goo on and made sure to tighten further than prior. Clenching as I did it as I was sure I was going to snap the fitting into the...
