The good news is that the GTO finally came to life! The Mast Motorsports controlled L92 sounds really sweet. We're thrashing to get some brake issues fixed and waiting for tires, but we should be driving it today. Lots more video coming!

The GTO is finally as finished as it's gonna get for Power Tour... here's a couple snap shots. Lots more video to come on the build and driving it... hard!

Looks great Kevin!!!:thumbsup:

Looks great Kevin can't wait to see it. The gauges are SWEET!!!!
|
Thanks Ben and J2 - the gauges are really killer. And powered by the ECM, so no senders are needed. Trick stuff. The LCD in the middle lets you cycle through MPH, RPM, MAP, AIT, Oil Press, Temp, Man Temp, Hours, TPS, and many more by hitting the black button. Very cool.

I'm headed out to Ames on Wednesday morning...we'll look for ya there Kevin.

We won't be there, Rubes, but the car will. I just got word from the car's owner, Stefan, that the GTO ran 13.40s at 108 with massive wheelspin on the Power Tour during its first drag strip pass. Heck, it only has 300 miles on it total! With some traction and tuning, I think the mid-high 12s are not far off. The L92 with VVT is nice!

Catching up on some of the install videos on the GTO... here's the Air Ride MuscleBar sway bars and PosiLinks articulating end links on the GTO's front suspension. The links are cool, they keep the bar rigid but also prevent binding. These are 2 key elements making an air-equipped car handle well, but they will also work on traditionally sprung cars.
