    ZF bellhousing and flywheel/clutch options

    Hello Everyone! My build will be using 351W stroked to 427 with a ZF transaxle that Ron McCall is rebuilding. The chassis is RCR. I'm looking at both Quicktime and Kennedy Eng. for the bellhousing. The car is being setup for 90% street and some track time. Kennedy Eng. is asking if I will...

    Hi Vinny! I'm sure you had a great vacation. Prestige Motorsports is building my engine and it should be done around April. I'm waiting on RBT to get back on what they have and pricing. I also contacted Quaife on their ZF for around $19,000. Fran got you an original ZF? Wow! What did it...

    Hi All, With Craft Performance no longer available and Prestige Motorsports engines requiring the CVF pulleys to fit in the RCR chassis and Roush not responding to phone calls. What engine builders are still out there? Appreciate it! Louis

    RCR GT-40 Dashboard

    Hi Rod! Attached are a few pictures. The first pic shows the fabricated lip on the spider and the fabricated dash extension. That dash extension slips into the lip and supports the front of the dash. On the 3rd picture you see an extension on the side of the dash. I will make a piece to fit...

    RCR GT-40 Dashboard

    Hi Jim! Has anyone sent you pictures or explanations? I have the roll cage as well and cut my dash to be removed with the roll cage in place. I also fiberglassed a lip on the spider and glassed an extension on the dash that slips in the lip. This way the front of the dash is supported. I...

    Louis' RCR MKII Build

    Hi All! It's been a few years but I'm making slow progress on the MKII. I do have a question about the Center Scoop on the rear deck. Two of the attached pictures show the the scoop of the original P1015 at the Carroll Shelby Museum and mine labeled LW1015. Does anyone know why the scoop...

    Hi Morten! Good to hear from you. The RCR specs for caster are 5-8 degrees. Mine was set to 6deg. The solution will come. Louis

    Louis' RCR MKII Build

    Advice from Bill at RCR was to double-check my suspension alignment before cutting anymore on the rocker panels. Always wanted to make aluminum spacers to replace the shim washers anyway so I'm doing that. Before I took the suspension back down the wheelbase = 94.5" Close to 95 specified by...

    Louis' RCR MKII Build

    Hi Adam, If I remember correctly: End of right rear rocker to chassis: ~45mm or more End of left rear rocker to chassis: ~47mm (honestly can't remember) From your thread they should be 52 - 54 mm. So the rockers on my car need to move back toward the rear tire.. Thanks! Louis

    Louis' RCR MKII Build

    Rockers Hi All, Another rocker question for the group. The tires are hitting the rockers even though the rockers as far back as possible and the front suspension as far forward as possible. I've trimmed a little here and there hoping to get them to go back. I've seen some cut the front...

    Louis' RCR MKII Build

    Hi Gale! I never thought of that but now that I really look at it .... The rockers came bolted on the way you see them in the pictures. I'll take a closer look at them tonight. If they are backwards I'll just have to laugh some more. Louis
