Thanks, Robert. I believe that's the lower access. I know Mark has said he was putting a door in one of the cars he has built. I just can't remember which one it was.

We have the 40 mm taller intercooler bricks and spacers in from C&R. We hope to dyno is in a couple weeks.





I had to purchase 4 sets to cover the tooling so if someone needs/wants a engine set IM me.

We wrapped up 90% of the wiring. I need to finish the ABS brake lines then we can repaint the engine bay and bottom of the car.

We finally have a solution for fuel flow. With a lot of help from Kinsler, Carl Casanova and Jason Hines we feel the best solution for E-85 and Gas for street and track is going with 2 CTS-V fuel pumps controled by Carl Casanova’s Vapor Worx system.

We need 2.2 gallons a minute at 65 psi at full power.

Because JA had a Ricks tank Matt is modifing the tank to allow two pumps and the in-tank pickups.

Good choice! It'll prob look like this when done.

Very nice.

I guess pm'ing Carl is in order to see if that retrofit is doable/available for my Ricks tank, as i do get starvation issues on the road course at 1/2 tank....(hmm, maybe i'm not driving hard enough?)
