Wow, nice price and do they fit the front without spacers?

The front are 18 X 10 with 6.125 backspacing so they do not need spacers.

The rears are 36 mm offset so I'll set axle width so no spacers.

Some updates:

As part of the rebuild, JA is getting all new wiring. Ryan started making the new engine/trans harness.



The interior will also be refurbished. The steel pipe on top of the trans tunnel is holding up the trans through the shifter opening using a nylon rachet strap.
The original trans crossmember was removed with the old subframe. A new crossmember (built into the floor) will be fabricated like was used on Hellfire.

I think I saw this trailer loading method before on History Channel Egyptian pyramid building episode.



Sled Alley will be fabricating the new trans crossmember, new radiator and intercooler and ECM mounts as well as relocating the drysump tank.
There's also a bunch of other stuff that I can't seem to remember

Good updates Gordon!


Hope you found a bunch of Lillard's pocket change under the seats!

Is that a creeper underneath the front crossmember?
Whatever it is, that's a brave move.

Nices stoppers and score on the wheels!

The wheel dollies and ramp set up is......uh......functional.

Has anyone seen my car ? I loaned Jackass back to Stielow because he said he wanted to take a couple measurements. Now I get emailed a link to this thread and look what he has done...I bet they found french fries and Nerds under the seat. I can't believe you parted out my car.

Hey when I was ordering my wheels from jake at forgestar. Jake was super helpful. He worked with me and worked with me to get it right. He told me stielow was ordering wheels too. I thought he was a liar. Hahahaha. Guess not. The wheels were super cheap on the black Friday sale. especially for forged wheels. Kinda unheard of. I'm getting mine on Tuesday. I got the f14 super deep concave.

I have looked at this injector as well

Thoughts?

Per Kurt

Here's how you calculate proper injector size to get you at 80% duty cycle;

Expected max horsepower x 1.2 x .5 for n/a ( .65 for boost) divided by the number of cylinders.

Example for 800 n/a : 800 X 1.2 = 960 X .5 = 480/8 = 60 so you would need a 60 lb/hr injector for an 800 hp n/a engine.
