    Man i feel your pain on that one. it has taken me 2 years to pull the motor in my vette and rebuild it.
    After 12 hours of banging your head and knuckles on peoples hotrods, the last thing you feel like doing is fucking with YOUR car.

    Sorry guys, we have a lot of things going on!

    But here's some more pictures, got the HKS Kevlar belt on, HKS gears and HKS rail... yeah.








    ...and the Ricer will actually have an exhaust this year!

    Our old style rails only excepted -6 line and the HKS rail will take -10 if need be. Our new rails will be out in a couple weeks and they will take -10 as well. IT will be swapped out then.

    The Ricer is definitely making some insane progress! Right now we are waiting for the transfer case to come in tomorrow, then we can get started on the downpipe, and get the rest of the turbo kit finished.

    Not much longer now!!

    Coming along, got the timing belt on and the strut bar, and working on getting the coolant lines routed using the ProClassic hose.

    We'll be at SEMA all week, but when we come back, the transfer case should be here and we can get the turbo on and downpipe and radiator...

    It's coming!!







    THEN.... Fayetville SC track!!

    Why are you running a strut bar after all the work to pull weight out of the car?

    I HIGHLY doubt that strut tower deflection could change torque steer much at all.

    Torque steer is almost always solved by working on the control arms...whether it be bushings or reinforcements etc etc.

    The strut bar is titanium. It weighs NOTHING, about the same weight as a cell phone... maybe less. It's pretty silly.

    So the Transfer case came in this morning from TRE... The turbo kit is on and mounted, the rest of the cooling lines are done, intercooler piping is made and the exhaust is almost welded and finished! Should just be a few more things...










    And here's a video I took this morning:

    Very impressive. The intake fabrication is incredible. I can't wait to see it run next season.
