If you've installed a traction control system such as the Racelogic system, how did you mount the rear wheel speed sensors? Did you use the CV joint bolts as pickups or did you install a toothed trigger wheel? If so, where did you mount the trigger wheel and sensors? I need to use VR sensors...

Hey folks, My dash seems to be a little warped. The passenger side front edge is up to 3/4" higher than the driver side - see the attached pic. What are some good ideas on how to fix this? Is it matter of just screwing it into a mounting bracket with a lot of screws on that side to hold...

Hi, I seem to have a problem with the alignment of my steering column and would like your advice. If you take a look at the attached pictures, you can see that I've got the dash aligned on the left (needs minor cutout on A pillar for final fit) and the right. However, my steering column is...

Hi, I'm staring at braided lines and the fittings that came with the kit for the standard Corvette brakes and they're not quite going to fit. Using the pieces in the kit, the front lines would install into the caliper parallel to the surface of the rotors/pads and the braided line with...

I bought a Momo generic GM steering column adapter for my wheel, but it doesn't match up to the column on the SLC even after removing all the steering wheel control wiring and plastic. Do you guys have either or both of: a) part number for any 6-bolt steering wheel adapter, quick release or not...

Hey guys, I'd like to accommodate drivers from 5' 2" to about 6' 2" in my SLC. I have the telescoping GM column and have been hearing it's best to keep the seat fixed by having the pedals be adjustable forwards/backwards. Are there any kits for this or will I have to engineer something...

I'm building a center dash display for both all the entertainment pieces, but also to visualize data coming off the car and would love to get your feedback on an early sample. I wrote a few words about it and did a screencast demo on my blog / build log: A working IVI system prototype «...

Hi, Trying to lay out and plan some stuff: Could I ask someone to measure the center dash for me? For the central flat area, what is the: 1) width 2) height of bottom rectangular section 3) center (max) height of curved upper section Thanks, Tim

I don't have my kit yet, but wanted to buy clamps for the brake and coolant lines. What size are they? Thanks, Tim

Hey folks, I'm trying to get a head start on laying out the electronics of the car and was curious to see about where in the car folks have mounted the following electronics: 1) ECU 2) Each of the three major ISIS components if you used that system 3) PDM/PDU if you used that instead of...

Hey folks, I did quite a bit of homework for what transmission to buy for my SLC build. It wasn't so much the "where's the best deal" homework, but rather an exercise in what are the right gear ratios in a transmission to match with the engine I'm planning to run. I put all the various...

Per request from Fran, posting this pic of my dog Enzo. The pic is a few weeks old but I just noticed today what he was "reading" in GRM... pure coincidence, honestly! :thumbsup:

Hi, Does anyone have a link to the wiring connections for the GM steering column? Or even just a part number for the GM unit so I can go find it myself? I don't have my kit yet, but wanted to think through the wiring a little. If you have any photos of any of the plugs lying around that...

So what's the deal with the Brembo brake upgrade - is it worth it? In no way slighting the pricing - it is what it is - I'm just curious to see whether it's a $6K option worth splurging for. I'm considering building the kit and it would be a "mostly street on weekends plus some track days from...

Hey folks, Getting into the nitty-gritty of this project. So how do the door windows work? Are they permanently fixed in place or are (or can they be installed) to be removable? I ask for two reasons: 1) Can you "crack them open" to create any flow of fresh air? 2) For track days many run...

Hey folks, After getting a quick ride in Cam's car while in Texas (thanks again!), I continue to be intrigued by the SL-C. In further research, I'd really like to explore the idea of doing a semi-automatic gearbox. I know there are a number of aftermarket bolt-on units for various...

Hey everyone, Been lurking for a few weeks, but haven't posted yet. Quick intro: live in San Francisco, strongly considering an SL-C build, have previously built an FFR Cobra that I unfortunately had to sell on the way to grad school. It was around #700 (~2002-2004), so a reasonably early...
