Looks like the big silver knob would latch into one of the 7 holes in the base plate, locking in position on the front/back adjustment.

A very nicely built car, and as you stated, you're going for a full race build; so you can choose to do things differently. Sad you didn't get the price you were asking. I read 'title in the name of the seller's Oaklahoma family trust' and then I did a double take and checked back here. I...

Okay now that's a really smart idea; a jig for testing outside the car.

Howard yours has been an incredibly enlightening build (or would it be more accurate to say it's an evolution at this point) to read, and I hope you're having a merry Christmas and get some time in the shop.

I wonder if this is thinking "OEM in tank 'low' pressure fuel pump" then an inline filter before the Surge tank and high pressure pump. Because that's honestly the only reason I'd think to put the filter after one pump. (most In-tank pumps have some kind of filter plus their slosh-sock)

Share an updated picture? :)

That really is a nifty looking mount. I'm familiar with finding those kind of wheels on caster mounts; usually in automatic gate/fencing hardware. or it could be some of these casters, but with a little triangular L-bracket lengthwise. I tried engaging my safety squints to zoom in and it...

They seemed pretty skookum in the vid (An on-site installer for Advantage) and if they keep quality up and safety is the key concerns, good.

What's interesting to me is; the Backyard Buddy website redirect to Advantage, I wonder when that merger took place :) But I've watched installation setups for Advantage, and they were the ones I was considering so I could have a lift to get my car up in the air to work on from below...

Yeah, I apologize for a bit of thread necromancy. There's a lot to read and follow up on; especially as people start seeing supply chain start to really un-bind from the Before Covid time. I'd take parts built out of Taiwan over parts built out of Mainland China any day. The 'How Streetable...

It sounded like the engineers were speaking in Chinese, so maybe Taiwan is the fantasy island? The video of the skeleton go-cart they put up a few days ago looping around Vegas seems interesting. I wanna see how much glitter comes out when they change the gear oil after those hot laps tho.

Thanks for doing such a detailed writeup, Scott. I'm really appreciating the depth you've been going to with all the writeups you've been doing for this project, it's been an enlightening weekend read. Seeing references to other builds and how everyone is chiming in with how they did things...

Yeah, not sure where I went wrong. Someone asked if I saw a thing, and I replied with an itemized list of why that wouldn't work with my plans. Enh. Reminds me of this tagline. "If you want to learn the right way to do something, post about how to do it wrong on the internet and wait to be...

Nice! I'd love to shoot the breeze. Been trying to make it back to C&C but it's typically 'time to get going to Cars &Coffee' about the time I'm going to bed on a Saturday morning...

After reading the beginning and starting in down this thread, seeing this as the epilogue makes me sad. Moreover it leaves questions I have about what I'm planning unanswered. For now it means I've read through another thread, done a little bit of thread necromancy, and am laying out things...

My folks got a ranch down in Roseburg... great rolling through places with a mind that looks at every lot-rotting classic car and goes 'Hmm... I can fix her.'

A donor AC unit that I had to take the edge off the heat at my old apartment is going to park in back , next to the dust collector... (Found a formula for setting up a cyclonic. So that's getting 3d-printed.)

Oh dang that's pretty good Return On Investment there. I got a big cooling air mover to let me encroach into the hottest months of the summer; but looking to get more work done on insulating, and air control (dust / fume mitigation and air conditioning). The slab this is poured on defiantly has...

Work's got me bound geographically for the foreseeable future. And the house doesn't have any equity yet. Just got in last summer. Plus I like green. Arizona's nice to visit, but I couldn't live there. :)

Heyo! Good to see ya. I'm curios to see some of the local builder/tuners, so pardon if I dive after and possibly do some thread-necromancy. :) This weekend my brain was racking going 'I wonder how other fellows here in Oregon handle dehumidifying their shop/garages.' Same to @SpyderMike :)
