I will be there from weds thru the weekend. I plan on going to the Shelby factory also. If anyone else wants to meet up and take the tour drop me a pm, Scott

Maui, The lower ball joints are gm truck 4-bolt upper style. (I replaced mine with "Howe's" units with a longer stud to get the geometry correct) The heims are standard stuff, just took the old ones to a race shop and got the highest quality they had. The front bearings are corvette c5, but Fran...

RCR??? ;O) (or another cobra) S

Adam, Rear frame looks good, and nice job on the rear trans mount as well. I had the same starter for a few years with the g50, but wound up paying a little more and getting the porsche part that is a little more robust. If you want to use the original style mounts for the rear clip/bobbins...

Car looks great Tom, sounds good too!! Congrats and thanks for the info on the vents, S

Pat, Thanks for all the part numbers and info! I will send you a pm. S

Pat, Can you post a link to where you bought your vents/liner? I need to do a set for mine too, Scott

Good job! (I already cut out the front portion of the 6 point cage, but I am going to "massage" whats left to sit behind the firewall as well) Did you use the same mounting points on the car or fab up something else? S

John, Fran is probably the best person to ask. (besides Delynn) S

OP, I run those on the gt40 with BRMs. They are cool, but are a LOT easier to get off with a one-inch drive impact!! Once you drive the car a bit they are VERY tough to get off with a breaker bar. (lots of guys with cobras and 40s get tired of the seized 3-ear knock-offs) Use plenty of...

Ok, I'll bite. M&H Racemaster 390/45r15 Drag Radials on 15X14s on rear, and BF Goodrich G-Force Rival S 225/45r15s on 15x8s on front. (used to run Yokohama Advan A048s on the fort but they wear waaaay too fast to use on the street) My 2cents, S

OP, Spacers are fine as long as they are high quality and properly torqued. (the BRM replica wheels with center-lock and pin drive all use them) That is probably the easiest way to get a few more degrees of turning radius. It is also possible your wheels have too much back-space. I'm sure Fran...

More than one way to hustle Mike.......... ;0). S

Willie, Over 10 years ago I bought a c-type chassis kva unfinished roller (late style chassis). No motor/trans/paint etc. I paid about 10,000 pounds for it which was like 15k US at the time. The early chassis you are indicating is less desirable, and takes a lot of modification to make it into...

Mitchell, If you haven't already, you should put some red loctite or thread locker on those cv bolts. Happened to one of mine a couple years ago, never any problems since. S

Troy, If I remember correctly the stock 360 motor is around 400hp. (so I can understand why you would turbo it) It WILL sound sweet!! Looking forward to the chassis pics and seeing the car on track when you get it all together, S

OP, Looks like a 360 motor. What kind of intake are you going to use? (motor is really tall with the stock intake) Do you have any other pics of the bare chassis? (looked on the Pace website, didn't see any) Will be watching with interest, Scott

Chris, Car sounds great! The turning radius is stellar as well. Neither of my 40s would turn in that tight space without a LOT more back and forth! Sent you a pm, Scott

Stopped at the track for a bite to eat and watch the cars. New gt has a nice wail, but the corvettes are just brute MONSTERS!! Be interesting to see how the teams finish, S
