The OneLapCamaro complete build thread

[James OLC]

It's been a long couple of weeks and we have been making lots of progress but at this point there are some things that will have to wait.

What I can share is some of the good and bad that we have been dealing with as we try to get everything together...

The ISIS System has been powered up and, I have to tell you, is very impressive. The rear Powercell is complete and fully functional -



and is being controlled by the front mounted Mastercell control box. The diagnostic ablilities are awesome and make the system very easy to deal with. We fabricated a hinged mount for the Mastercell beneath the dash to give us easy access; I'm getting too old to contort myself like a pretzel to get under the dash -



Which we have been laying out -

pics? - nope

Despite all of the complexities that I had heard about Racepak dashes in the past, the new IQ3 seems to have solved many of the complications. Despite having some difficulties at first, once we had all of the pieces that we needed it was very straight forward.

On the down side, we had to start working on a new hood. I stole the NOS hood off my wifes '67 (if I don't start working on it soon there won't be a lot left of it) and Chris started stripping it.



Unfortunately, our carbon hood had a couple of problems that we just could not overcome. Fortunately, the steel hood is almost perfect -



It should be in paint by the end of the week.
