Well it has been a busy summer with the kids out of school.

Went golfing at Beech Mountain in NC. That is the 10th tee box with about a 400 ft drop to the fairway

Time for some updates

Getting steering column in place and driver position

Had to move a couple of tubes on the headers for clearance and also rolled the rack back for a better u-joint angle.

After the steering shaft was final, Jim fabbed up a mount for my pedal box. It is made where I can change the pedals front to rear instead of moving the seat.

And yes he did mill the mount

From there, Jim moved onto getting the exhaust routed. He had to drop the intermediate collectors 2 inches to get them under the car and he still had to do a small mod on the floor. Those headers are off a cup car...Jimmie Johnson's 48 to be exact.

We are trying to keep as much heat away from the driver's side of the car and also keep the exhaust as high up in the car as possible for ground clearance.

Jim made the transition to oval tubing. Notice that he made a connection between the to oval pipes as a H pipe/balance tube.
