I would re-torque your intake manifold bolts. I believe they are 89 inch. pounds. When the engine heats up a small leak can occur that can cause your symptoms. The leak may be small enough to not throw a code.

Thank you Del. You guys are amazing. I ordered it through Amazon. I can't wait to get back on the road. A fifteen dollar part takes out a $100K car.

Well I have 900 miles and 3 track days on my SLC and finally had my first failure. Yesterday as I was walking out to my car to go home I noticed my brake lights had been stuck on all day. It dragged my battery voltage down so low I couldn't even jump start it. Has anyone had this problem? I...

Hi Scott. Are they rebuilt or new? Do they have the upgraded axle bolts? Do they have the stock gears? What about price?

This is a moroso expansion tank and the overflow tank is behind it. Cheap and easy. I have over 850 miles and 3 track days with this setup. No issues and no overheating.

Thanks everyone for comments and advise. Frank, do you remember your camber and toe in settings?

Thanks Howard. I'll post more info. when I get it. I measure ride ht. in the same places just in metric. Neil, that is my biggest concern and is why I am seeking information. Tom, sorry for the misinformation, some days I spell my name wrong. I am a big fan of the Ford GT. I have seen a few...

Hi Howard. The East track at Wild Horse Pass is small. Max speed is 120MPH and just for a second before hard braking. Ride Ht.: Front is 89mm. Rear is 115mm Stock Caster setting, which I think is 4.5 Camber: Front = 1.7 Rear = 1.1 Toe in: Front and rear is just below 1mm Springs: Rear = 8"...

At a typical car show there are brand new production vehicles of all types: Corvettes, Mustangs, Camaros, Challengers, Lambos, Porsches... All of those are nice vehicles. When I show up with my SLC there is a crowd around my car all night long. Anyone can buy a vehicle, not many can build one...

My "top speed run" post was supposed to be attached to my main post so I am bumping me up front so people know my parameters. I there a way to merge to two? I'm still hoping to find some setup help for a top speed run.

Hi John, I have the Ford Ricardo transaxle so the final drive ratio is 3.36. 1st = 2.6, 2nd = 1.7, 3rd = 1.2, 4th = .9, 5th = .7, 6th = .6. No traction control or ABS. The rear track tires are 345 Hoosier R7 slicks. The fronts are 285. Engine is around 600HP.

Well, I have completed three road course track days. The SLC is amazing. Passing brand new corvettes and Porsches is pretty awesome. Now, I want to try a high speed run. There is an event coming up called "No Fly Zone Arizona" on December 12. It is a 1/2 mile run at an airfield in Gila Bend...

Hi Neil. I am in full panic mode while driving so I don't see anything but the immediate track and traffic in front of me. I am still learning to glance at my gauges during the straights. My instructor would yell at me almost every lap because looking at the gauges requires to break driving...

Thanks Cody. Track time is way different than our test ride. The video looks like I am casually driving but believe me I am pushing it. The video link below is the first segment.

Here is the pic of steering box.

This is my second track day out with the SLC. After going off coarse at :45 seconds, every time I turn right I get this ticking sound. It is very evident at 2:07 and 2:15. When I shake the right side steering arm can I can hear some movement inside the main gold colored steering tube. The...

On the left side of the hex there is an stamped indentation and then on the left side of the rim there is 3 stamped indentations. I just thought that was some kind of adjustment. I put a 14mm wrench on it and moved it CW and CCW a few millimeters but then got nervous so I stopped. I have no...

Well I finally got my SLC on the track. Super amazing car. On day two my right side wheels got off course and ever since that happened every time I turn right I hear a ticking sound. When I shake the right side steering arm can I can hear some movement inside the main bronze colored steering...

Good Morning Del. I noticed you deleted your windshield wiper stalk. Is that a functional knob in its place? If so, how did you do that. Where did you get that knob?

It takes me an extra 20 minutes just to answer questions after fueling. So far the majority of the people call it a Mclaren, 2nd is lotus. Some people say it looks like the Batmobile, incidentally, that was never my intentions. I don't mind the attention but repeating the same thing over and...
