Pantera Tech
Been working on it the last week or so
new front rotors, new halfshafts-old ones were
worse than I thought, jetted it back down 4 points
on the primaries to put the snap back in it (left it higher
to make it easier to drive on the street).. new seat belts 5 point,
fixed the passenger door handle so now it works,
cleaned up a few bolts, trims etc, new plugs, filter etc
Getting is polished this weekend..
I need to double check the rules but since tech guy is responding
Are there noise limits- my car can make 105 at Laguna with my street exhaust
I used to run the straight 4" pipes at Pahrump.. but also
have my Thunderhill pipes that make 98
Race gas allowed? I usually run 30% to what my engined
builder states lube the valves.. leaded of course

comp solid flat tappet lifter cam, scat crank, La billet rods, 830 Nascar Holley,
180 exhaust- 3" straight thru.. I run the 4" out of state, approx 600hp,
roll cage,chassis braces, 18" Kinesis wheels, took the Kumo V 710's (my street tires) off and have BFG Rivals 245 and 315's.. Recaro seats,ect
Has run Silver State, Virgina City Hillclimb, autocrosses, Thunderhill, Laguna

Ousci Pantera
I have had several offers to help with posting pictures
Will send something out later today.. thank you all
The 180 exhaust on the Car is what I love the best
No need for a stereo because the notes from the back
of the car are awesome. Car is great on the track but
a little bit of a handful Autocrossing... Suspension has
stock a-arms.. except the uppers in the rear, Eagle double
adjustable shocks with 550 springs in front and 750 out back,
graphite fittings- stock has 250/450
Brian,
I remember when you first started running your Dad's Vette
many years back.. you have come a long ways since then
Love both cars.. are you running the Vette this Year??
