Glad to see you back posting. Nice work

Are those resonators in the exhaust prior to the mufflers or just an expansion chamber of sorts?

Yeah, those are resonators. The customer wanted them to hopefully quiet it down some.

Thanks for the props guys!

Got a few more updates. Ben plugging away. All the small details are starting to add up. Got the A/C dryer and A/C plumbing done. Got the radiator mounted and plumbed. Finally got the brake pedal finished. I had to make a hole new pedal and location because of the booster set back and pedal ratio change. Reused the old brake pad. The customer still wanted factory rubber and look for the brake and gas. We also made a great choice in stepping up the rear housing to a full floater. This was Baer Breaks first floater for a 15 inch rotor. To keep it simple and smart. I took the housing up to Frank at Speedway Engineering and had them instal the ends and true the housing up. Those guys up there are awesome! Frank is supper cool and very smart at what he dose. My wife took a couple pics of me and my 3 year old showing him how to weld.
