    Vinny P's RCR GT40

    CVR protorque starter 5055 It fits tight, but you can rotate it on the flange to maximize clearance. I tried the equivalent model from powermaster with the same results. If I pull the motor I will cut out a slot in the chassis or cut and weld the oil pan for more clearance in the future.

    Sean's RCR GT40 build

    Your project is coming together nicely. I have had the same issue during my mockup fit. I have not tried to tackle that problem yet, (it's really a slight amount of rub) My thought was to adjust the door slightly higher than the spider (just enough to clear the spider) and then have the final...

    Sean's RCR GT40 build

    He used a belt sander; I don't remember which grit paper he used I can find out. It's easy enough now that I watched him do it. You have to follow the direction of the edge of the glass moving the sander up and down the edge, not in one spot.

    Sean's RCR GT40 build

    My windshield was tight it rubbed against the posts, more so on the passenger side. I had to have it shaved by my glass guy.

    Vinny P's RCR GT40

    I bought the spacers on Ebay. I looked up my purchase to get the size, it showed they were out of stock. I found another vendor with same item here is the link. https://www.ebay.com/itm/304864152521?

    Vinny P's RCR GT40

    Hi Randy, I just used the spacers on the back 3/16" thick. Slight improvement the r/s sits perfect the left side quarter/flare has an odd shape and needs some help. lol. Width of the front wheelbase is ok no spacers needed. My front wheels are very close to body when turning lock to lock, not...

    I recommend that you do your homework, review and negotiate the contract of any builder. If I had to do it over again I would not pay more than 25% deposit and have an agreement in place that the builder secures your parts and materials once contract is signed in writing. There are several great...

    Vinny P's RCR GT40

    I have been working on my RCR40 and I have not been updating until now. I have taken the chassis apart and reassembled suspension, that's pretty cut and dry so no need for details on that. It took some time to set up my rear suspension just shy of 95" to center the rear wheels as much as...

    Fran I am Still waiting for a reply. Is it standard procedure for you to totally ignore your clients once you have been paid in full? I have not heard back from you since I brought my issues to your attention back on November 7th. It's impossible to sort it out without having a 2-sided conversation.

    Fran, I sent you and the team a couple of emails since November 7th, 2023 regarding the $17k ZF rebuilt gearbox I purchased from you that is leaking from the rear cover seal after adding oil. The gear changer on the gearbox is also hanging up and does not move freely. I have not run the car...

    Bundle of Snakes Clearance Issue

    Sounds like fun! I believe my EFI set up should be fine, the motor ran great with regular headers during the break in and testing. From then until now well that's another story. Like everything else on these cars nothing comes easy it's always a process. Stay tuned! Thanks, Vinny

    Bundle of Snakes Clearance Issue

    Thats a thought not much material to remove, I'm thinking just enough material just by removing the RCR logo should do it!

    Sounds like a good idea if you are adding washers to the mounts.

    I was told that you have to place the sensor after the collector in order to pick up the crossover pipe for a good reading for the o2 sensor?

    Bundle of Snakes Clearance Issue

    Thanks for the feedback. I had a feeling that the leakage would be a general issue with other builders. I had them sealed and then tested them again a few days later and they leaked just slightly. I think stabilizing all the pipes with the tabs and sealing them should do the trick. We will see...

    Bundle of Snakes Clearance Issue

    I am using the same set up on my RCR and am having issues with leakage between the pipes and collectors. I tried several times using copper sealant and still leaked slightly. Got tired of reinstalling these headers. I finally purchased 8 more of the tabs and am having a fabricator weld them on...
