Just completed this project… been thinking about this for some time & finally got around to making a set.. pedals that are adjustable from side to side & little adjustment from up & down.. This will should help with heel & toe.. Plus I wanted to increase the pedal ratio.. the Wilwood’s have a 6.25 ratio & now we have increased it to 7.25 ratio.. this should give a bit more leverage.. We will need to play around with M/C bore size to find one that is not very firm but will give us a small amount of travel for modulation..

Cris, Could you PM me the pricing on a pair of the pedals?
|
Looking mean Cris!
Nice stance. Thanks for the update. Wes |
Spoiler looks killer Cris, not to mention all the other work being done. That thing is going to be one bad machine! Nice work on the pedals also, you're turning out some incredible things.

:thankyou:
We've been experimenting with various aerodynamic improvements on the 70 Challenger. In order to aid our development, we've generated a rough model of the Challenger center profile to study the characteristics of airflow over the body. By creating a virtual wind tunnel with the aid of CFD simulation software, we can evaluate how changes in spoiler angle, height, and profile--for example--affect the overall lift and drag generated throughout the body. While this model only gives us a partial representation of the aerodynamic behavior of the car, it is a great starting point in evaluating how certain changes alter the pressure zones and air velocity over and under the vehicle. As we develop a more comprehensive model of the car, more and more aspects of the car's behavior at speed will be realized. http://i1015.photobucket.com/albums/...ps329eec1b.jpg |
^ Did you write that Cris? :headscratch:
|
I just copied & pasted from some aerodynamics search I did on Google.

Awesome work Cris. That car should handle very well.
Can't wait to see the final product and see it tearing up the track. |
Is that a fuel or rear diff cooler?
|
Thank you Tony..

Hands down my favorite car ever---that looks sick--and I love the LS in it---that is the best stance ever seen on one of these. Man---I need one.

Finally got the car painted! Now the fun begins.. I am behind schedule on this build... So hoping to make up some time in the assembly.. Here are some shots of the quickie paint job..
:thankyou: http://i1015.photobucket.com/albums/...ps8e6a893a.jpg http://i1015.photobucket.com/albums/...psc7087d32.jpg |
for a quickie, that paint looks pretty good...:confused18:
|
Cris,
This car is going to be bad ass! :beavis: Brian |
Thanks Brian! looking forward to seeing this one on the road & you doing some test driving on this car..
Just got off the phone with Mikey.. he was giving me some set up advise on for the C5.. Since I figured he helped with Joel's Quote:

I like the matte finish of the engine bay. Good idea!
|
Thanks! Here is a pic of what it will look like with the engine.. Very simple!

Looks great Cris nice touch on the matte finish! |
Man, that looks awesome Cris. Great job guys!
That looks like a LS engine. :D |

Don't do it!!!!! Its just bad mojo, it will end with you needing a broom and bucket to sweep up the engine internals. LOL |
Thanks Al! Should have some prototype pcs for your Camaro this week!

Plumbing complete & the C&R third member installed.. We got floating rear rotors for the rear Wilwood brakes but need to machine a few components..

|
Thank you! Not desiging & machining as much as we used but from time to time we will whip up something new.. We got some new concepts we are working on for pedal boxes..

Man I love this car:yes:
|
Thank you! here is a pic of the last few things we need in the engine bay.. Keeping this one very simple & clean.. & most important easy to service!

All parts are made by JCG.. we grafted a Camaro sub-frame that we designed for our shop builds.. The sub-frame connectors were something we whipped up just for this project but are easy to make..
This is a car we built to test our suspension.. Yesterday it hit the ground! http://i1015.photobucket.com/albums/...ps8fccc0a0.jpg Quote:

Today we just picked up our Maxwell Industries shock dyno.. to support our testing of this build.. We will be doing custom valving on the RideTech shocks.. Thanks to Brett for the full support on our in house shock program!
