Thanks. This is exactly what I was planning to go with. I saw these on Jason’s build too.

That looks exactly like the Moroso one I bought for half the price :rolleyes: Looks like they just stamped their logo on it.

I like this rollbar setup. Solves the issue with no support on the outer edges. Has me thinking about doing the same with a removable pin for mine. Great looking car!

Thanks Randy. I took a good bit of inspiration from your nostril setup. I really liked how you set it up. I wanted to make mine more rounded like yours, but I didn’t have the room behind the fans to make it work and keep the look I was going for by extending the original openings and keeping...

Got everything sanded down and primered so that I can start blocking it. Car is definitely coming together now. I really like how the dual nostril turned out and it should get all the air from the radiator out of the front end.

Got the single nostril lined out as well. The main issue with it was they didn’t lay enough glass on it to keep it straight. I ended up putting 4 layers of glass on it to help it hold its shape.

After making the mold the correct way, I was able to get the dual snorkel completed. I made it using plexiglass, this allowed me to make an identical mold on the other side by flipping each pice and using the same screw holes.

That moment you realize you just built the mold for your new dual nostril setup backwards….. Guess I’ll be taking this apart to make it the right way tomorrow :rolleyes:

Good observation, I might be wrong in my thinking. But my thoughts are that the flow of the pump should cause a pressure drop between the 2 tanks across the fins. If so, it should flow throughout the entire radiator. As of now it seems to be heating the entire radiator and cooling the engine...

Body is really starting to look good. Sorry about the wind noise. I drove it up the road a few times in a spot that I could get on it. This thing is insanely fast.

I’m getting a little better with the aluminum welding. Got the pipe moved to the bottom of the radiator. This definitely got things cleaned up in the front. I will have no issues with the modifications I want to make on the nostrils now. I will plan to make a line to come out of the top of the...

I was able to get a lot done the last few days. Welded out the roll cage, got the spider, doors, and front clip sprayed with high build primer. I’m glad to see all the body lines are still were they need to be with only minimal effort to realign. The car is definitely looking good now that it’s...

Wish I could say that was easy. After tons of fiberglass and body filler dust……. I got the rocker panels done with the flares attached. Went ahead and primed them and the clamshell with high build primer to start blocking them. It’s nice to see that clamshell as one color. Spider and doors...

Got the flares that attach to the rocket panels on. Still need to pull them off to glass them and need to get some body filler to make it match the clamshell. I was surprised the curves were this far off on the 2 pieces. I also had to cut the tops off due to how warped they were, I plan to...

I haven’t even researched any of that yet. I was thinking about painting the backside of the glass to hide how uneven the flange is behind it, but not sure if that’s even necessary.

Hi Rod. Thank you. I used 8-32 on the rear window since I had a large flange to work with. I used 6-32 on the side windows and centered the screws to the smallest edge(the top of the doors where you indicated) since that flange was all over the place on width I figured centering it on the...

Thanks Bryan Still have a lot of finessing left to do, but overall it’s coming together. I think I’m getting close to spraying a guide coat on everything but the front clip to start blocking. I’m hoping to get the front Sorted out within the next week or so.

Went ahead and fitted the windows to make sure I didn’t need to do any body filler around them, so far everything looks pretty good where the glass meets the body. I plan to go ahead and mount the headlight covers as well to check them before proceeding with the bodywork. I was happy to see my...

Thanks Randy. I did use a heat gun to take most of that warp out, but couldn’t get the last 1/8” to lay down right there. Cutting it was the only way I could think of to remove it.

I was able to get the rear of the passenger door to lay flush with the spider. I had to make a cut in the door shell that would allow me to glue the door skin on to let it sit a bit lower. This worked out well. Now that section of the door sits even with the spider, and I can finally say that...
