Are you going for fender clearance on the bumpstop at steering lock?

Not sure what is commonly aimed for.

Sorry Rob, I had to...... I can't say much 'cause mine isn't much smaller :rofl: :lmao:

:whistling:

That's a good question. Maybe a good topic in the steering section.

The short answer is no. :headscratch:

I don't think full lock and full compression are going to happen at the same time. I also am more concerned with the full compression on the trailing side of the tire (behind the spindle at 2 o'clock on the wheel opening) since the car should be leaning towards the rear of the tire when the front is turned in (turn right car rolls left).

So I am looking for full lock at ride height and full compression at say 20 deg of turn angle clearing the 2 o'clock position.:confused18:

Maybe EVOD can machine this into some customs center caps for me. :lol:

LOL. Actually we are on the same page. Hopefully we're right and the fenders don't get ripped off :confused18:

Is the best thing about this thread Greg's mobile workshop?

Perhaps... :underchair:

Dude aren't you supposed to be parting out an abandoned project? :stirthepot:


:ups: More parts arrival, more pictures for Greg to love :underchair:

Wouldn't a set of oars and a couple slaves be more appropriate?

As soon as you take the car off the trailer some of these parts will really come in handy. I'm going to get my car fix in the badmotorfinger thread.:lmao:

Hmmm The original renderings were going that direction but I couldn't afford the crew and my moral issues with the mere premise of slavery led me away from it. :headscratch:

Not much car related over there but suit yourself. :popcorn2: There is plenty of sunshine in SoCal so there really is no need to remove it from the mobile rack until I have the steering gear in and the wheels on it. :action-smiley-027:

A proper image is worth a 1000 words.......

Show me your Intros!!! :bump:

OMG!








My message is too short so I'll add this line to it.

:ups: More bad photos of good parts.

Whatever your personal opinion of my gauge design Speedhut nailed what I asked for. So for those of you putting together dash I'd recommend contacting them. For close to the same price as an off the shelf gauge you get to tailor them to your specs and they are made here in the USA. They were a pleasure to deal with.

I'll get my camera out and take some decent photos later since I think these deserve better.

This weekend I also got my Steering column and seating position mocked and the steering shaft measured so it can be welded.

I am 99% there on my BS measurements. Just waiting for my my brake parts to get here for one last test fit and then I pull the trigger on the order.

It should be a roller within 6 weeks. :relax: :cheers:

Nice setup there Rob!! And yes you need a better camera for those bad boys!:mock:

Nice choice! I like my Speedhuts as well...

Rob, Check you PM I sent you the tracking number again I mixed up a number :(

And Speedhut does awesome gauges Im going with them for mine.

This guy knows of what he speaks.

Watch out doing any horse trading with those Canadians...

Consider yourself warned.

:peepwall:

Those are sweeeeet.

I do not see any
 

Red Warning grading on the speedo...what is up with that. At least a "sound barrier broken here" warning.

I think the diesel in my Freightliner has the same redline.

What!? No anchor warning light?

:D

Nice gauges, Elise at Speedhut has made very positive impressions with me.

This should fit nicely in the console.... or up on the hood near where the anchor is kept.

I couldn't think of anything on that guage to be afraid of.:relax:

You must have had your motor built like the freight liner at OPTIMA. Check out this months Road and Track; Dan Gurney explains why that is all the rpm you need to win LeMans while driving in relative comfort.:popcorn2:

http://www.roadandtrack.com/special-...t-le-mans-1967

Yes there is a sensor in the rear bumper. If a Frst Gen Camaro is within 100ft it goes off.:stirthepot: :stirthepot:

Elise and Jessica, their graphics designer, were really cool. I also like the hold music on the phone lines, usually Led Zepplin.:cheers:

A Drag Reduction System designed like that is going to make it pretty tough to pass a Camaro if you can get within 1 second in the DRS Activation Zone. :D


:thumbsup:

Does that tach have a shift light and rev limiter or memory built in??

But the speedo says 200!!!!:drive:

200 MPH at 6500 RPM's is being green and conserving fuel

Greg your bad!!! Rob I don't know why put up with this abuse !!:lol:

Yes sir

Just like Gurney said in R&T 6.5 mpg @ 200 for 3k+ mi. :D

He's trying to work through those issues of feeling like he's standing in a trench all the time. The anchor to GW embodies why he can't get up to see the top shelf in the pantry. I'm just trying to be supportive while he comes to grip with that internal struggle. That's what friends are for. :relax:

:peepwall:

LOL, oh man....

Gauges look great!!

In the PR of CA shouldn't 120, 160, and 200 be replaced with Jail, Prison, and Asylum? :sieg:

That's very cool. NOW GET THE CAR DONE :warning:

i recant my speedo statement

http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y3/...ps3eb2afdf.jpg

That's hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:lolhit:

The faster you're going the better your chances are of getting away. So maybe it should be Jail, Almost there, They'll never catch you. :)

If you pass a cop on the side of the road at 185 you can hit the next exit before they even put their car into gear........so I've heard.
