Erik, So my Patrick Motorsports built G50/52 should stand up against my 351 which generates 506 hp at 6700 rpm and 481 lb-ft at 4200 rpm? It has spray bars and an external pump. How to do you set up the drain plug and determine the fill when they are inverted? Thanks!

Got the Cobra inspected for the year today. Is always a relief ;>) My top 10 reasons my GT40 isn't making more progress: 10) Too many hobbies 9) Getting ready for hunting season (oops ... that's the too hobbies thing) 8) Have to finish knives for paying customers (oops ... that's...

Guys, How did/would you fabricate a vent to go in the drain plug of an inverted G50/52? I'd love some ideas that incorporate an inlet for cooled pumped transaxle oil. Thanks!

YES!!!!! Love it ... and the sound is wonderful!!! Can you down load a movie from UTube? Thanks for posting it.

Has some in common with the Sabre, but does not appear to be one ... based on the three chassis I've seen including mine.

Guys, It is my understanding that the RF GT40 uses a "T" shaped adustable mount on each side for the rear clip. It has threaded rod section horizontally and vertically to provide the adjustment of clip location. Can someone please tell me the approximate diameter of these threaded rods...

Guys, I have Sabre 6210. The only significant nasty on the Sabre is the rather poor way the rear clip is attached. Is a rinky-dink arrangement that has no adjustability at all. You either get the holes drilled for the pivots in the clip in exactly the right place or ... I am thinking...

Had to make mine Ron, I'm using the short pump. Because the engine is built on a race block it has an external oil pump and uses serpentine (flat) belts. Guess where that left me ... absolutely nothing could be bought. So I made the entire front end setup. Bought 7075 plate and bar on...

Didn't have notes section Ron, Very nice thought! Sent the donation. PayPal did not provide a comments space. I'd like #3s. Thanks,

I got sort of an odd present ... the several year loan of a gaming system. My youngest son will be in Europe and is not taking it with him. It is a PS2 with a pair of GameRacer seats, logitec wheels and pedal sets. The visual is provided by an InFocus projector. Sound by high-end Sony 5.1...

Re: Betty\'s first real date. Thanks for the great report! I could sure use a lot more of this sort of thing ... keeps me going on my very slow build.

rbrunckhorst, What transaxle are you employing in the GT40? Thanks,

Very cool toys!!!!!

Jim, I really appreciated the pic of the car in Danbury. I spent many a day there working for Union Carbide before Dow bought and dismembered the place. Drove that stretch of road many, many times. Brought back lots of memories and gave me a few daydreams too. As I've said before, it is...

The construction of the half shafts is not the issue. They have lots of slip joint movement possible. The issue really is how does one locate the center line of the transaxle ... and are the drive flanges symmetrical about the centerline. (At first measurement, it appears that the engine...

1) Have talked to him already. Lynn has a G50 mounted. Donnelly provided the transaxle rear mount on his car. 2) Still needed data, so I posted here. Thanks,

Guys, Are the drive hubs on the G50/52 symmetrical about the centerline of the transaxle? That is, should the distance from the drive flange to the chassis well be the same on each side? Another way to ask the question might be: Should the length of the half shafts be the same on each side...

Sure looks like Luis Lopez' car. I wonder what front and rear uprights he finally used. I thought he was going to try something different there than is usual for a Sabre.

Glad it was a simple fix, and glad that you shared it ... will watch for the same issue.

Had looked on e-Bay and saw nothing. Did the search a different way and found some small pieces. I think I have the problem covered! Graham, I very much appreciate the offer and would have gladly accepted your kindness if international mail had not been involved. Would not have been proper...
