Aaron's SL-C build...

[Aaron H.]

New gauges arrived... These are really nice!

 

[Jack]

Very nice! Good choice.

 

[Aaron H.]

I'm working on the instrument panel.

Tonight I made a run for a few supplies needed to mock up the forms for a few pieces that I'm going to make for my dash.

 

[Aaron H.]

Graziano to LS engine block-off plate anyone?

Why does cluster mph gauge only go up to 160 mph? Get a new gauge:thumbsup:

 

[Troy Truglio]

Aaron. Thanks for posting the gauges. I contacted them and plan to go with some custom ones from them.

As a note, they can do different things as you like. I plan to use the 4-1 gauge set, a 2-1 rpm to 10K and 200 or 240 mph setup. I also plan on a boost gauge in the middle. They can do custom colors and graphics on it. I might do an SLC on the gauge face with yellow background and should go well with the green exterior.

The things our SLC owners find and share is great. I hope to give back a bunch of ideas in the near future myself.

 

[Aaron H.]

Because I'm being realistic and mine runs out at 165 mph at factory redline.

I started the fill-in of the passenger rear cup holder this evening.

 

[Aaron H.]

I got the main body back from storage last night. I pretty much got the upper bulkhead panel knocked out.

 

[Aaron H.]

Whoa!!!! A ton of hours making that rear upper bulkhead panel. Measure, measure, pattern, cut, drill, sound deadening, heat wrap, riv nuts... OMG!!! Crazy, but it fits great and looks nice too.

 

[Aaron H.]

Granziano to LS engine block-off plate installed.

 

[Aaron H.]

The body is back on..

I went to the BMV today and paid my taxes. In 10 days or less Ill have my title in hand.

Shifter shortened by 1" to make more clearance to the gauge panel. 1/2"-20 die required. A lathe helps if you have one as well

[Aaron H.]

Ha ha.

I received my Indiana title today. Whoa!! That's a quick turnaround since I just paid my taxes this week.

 

[Luke S]

2 weeks without an update, Aaron. Your slipping But then again, winter returning next weekend for us.

 

[Aaron H.]

I've been working on it Luke. I'm mounting the wiper motor tonight. Planning a driveway run tomorrow night.

Yesterday I fabricated the support brackets for the front of the dash panel. I also created the backup plates for the door catches and am working towards completing the links between the outside door release handles and the door catches.
