Project Fredybender V2.1 : NA with an attitude for the track by fredybender

3 minute(s) of a 234 minute read

Wrenched a bit more tonight;

Finished up the spare tire hole with alloy

Made an alloy battery tray and made a strap for anchoring the battery between the two rear struts 

Finished machining & welding the EDIS 4 crank trigger wheel to crank pulley, and fabbed up the crank sensor bracket too. Al this for the Megajolt Jr V4 ignition set up

2-4-11

Final stretch in the parts buying mode (Geez! its about time!!!) I did end up by going twice over budget, even though I finished up Euclid last spring, and thought I could balance out a track build better... 

For the worst part, I'm actually thinking about a dual car trailer... 

Never mind! I have to get back on track and focus at the task at hand!

Got in some seats and I finally ended up by buying the whole exhaust race set-up (head ports to tailpipe) from TT, for the tall block 16V application. I thought I could find something decent second hand, and make it work, but I've been looking since October and nothing came up, so I splurged again!

Got a kill switch mounted in the vent opening in the dash, I think it looks cool!

Got some wheels studs with the Hex head, I also scored a Painless wiring total kit on e-bay for 100$ including shipping... 

A few liters of Ate blue racing brake fluid, I also scored a pair of OMP racing shoes for 31$ on e-bay... 

I'm just waiting on the painter to get back from his Florida vacation, and hopefully, my last buy; a 2Y transmission just waiting for my 3.94 final drive & Wavetrac just sitting in my living room to get transplanted, in order to start finishing up the car; I do have some fabrication left, (re; rad brackets, etc...) but I love doing that!

After having the car painted I can drop the engine & tranny in, and then it will start looking like a real race car!

Cliky for peeeeechuuurz!
