Aha. Looks like the side of the roof skin and area where it meets the quarter is on....

These pics might help bring this thread back to the top.

HMMM Floater







This is the Floater that Speedtech is now selling. Pretty nice stuff here.

I guess it is about time for another update. We have been plugging away on James's Project. We moved the engine back some 4-5" I think when it was all said and done. This mod required us to just fabricate a complete new firewall. We also taper the sides of the firewall to make the air exit thought the intended side vents a bit easier. We set up to hang the Wilwood pedal assembly with the DBW gas pedal. We constructed a really nice 1.75" rollcage and are currently working on adding the 1.5" supporting bars. The Speedtech torque arm and front suspension are pretty much completely installed. We installed the DSE subframe connectors to go with it also. Upon moving the engine back we also had to clearance the subframe to clear the alternator. Hopefully we will have some mock up wheels so we can see how the 315's on all 4 corners are going to fit. Enough talking here are some pics.













More to come

Looks bad ass like always.

Is that mock up dash in position properly? Is it really going to be that far from vertical or is that just camera lens skew?

Love the flat fabbed firewall with no "stuff" on it.
