That thing will have the proportions of a Shifter kart if you make it 10" wider. LOL

Looks like a great project and a beutiful car to start out with. I will like to see the finished project. That is quite a torque tube. Good luck.

like they say, if you gotta ask you probably don't want to know.


thanks for the blade info.
I knew it was a torsion type but wasn't sure on the proper terminology. I assume the ARB blade comes in different resistance ratings.

Glad to give you guys some carbon fiber eye candy for Christmas ! Hope it provides some inspiration for your projects in the New Year !

No project creep on the Porsche, but I continue to purchase parts and shop tools ! It is kinda nice to get paid to build cool stuff - verses me having to spend all my money ! And I don't have to get the customers, worry about making payroll, paying 40 kinds of taxes, and all that other stuff.... So I definitely have the best part of the deal !

Basic price just in case Greg needs to buy a couple:

Car with both speedway and road course configuration, bell housing and trans 235k
Engine lease for the season 90k
Wheels 2500
Tires 1850/set
Brakes 6k
Data pkg 21k
Damper pkg 11.5
Clutch 3k
Air shifter pkg 8500

2 cars for Greg to run a season should be somewhere between 1.6 and 1.8 cool mil.

No problem Vince !

Dallara offers 3 different rate bars in the parts manual that teams can buy.

More of the Porsche, less of the indy cars

Not quite as sexy as the inboard setup, but I saw this on a Trans Am car and it uses the same "blade" technology and is adjustable from the drivers seat. This is more the traditional sway bar setup like most of us use on our cars. Its set full stiff in this picture. I was only mounted on one side of the bar, the other was a solid arm.
