Thanks for the response Mark.

Any hints on the type? Straight through, Turbo or Chambered?

Thanks

Interested in those new mufflers as well.

I love the sound of the Borlas. Did you run any type of resonator with your previous builds Mark? Before or after the muffler?

Thanks!

Yes resonators before the mufflers.

If you want to get what was on Gunner Hooker sells it.

I’ll use a stand alone electric transport oil pump to circulate the fluid.

I repurposed the diff cooler to my GearFX housing. Made a steel box out of 3/16 mild steel (In hindsight 1/8 might be ok). Hogged out a big hole making sure the cooler clears the center section. Weld it all back together. The 3/16 plate did not warp when I welded it.

I did the same modification to Hellfire and Jackass. I did not add this to Gunner and I could over temp the diff in 4 20 min track sessions.

VERY cool!
Does this system get an external filter of some kind?
Does it add much oil capacity overall?

Mark,

I would assume they are the reall stuff, but do you know if they are using real lead or the new "lead-less" solder.

Just curious. Car is going to be so cool! - - as yours always are.

Yes the lead is the real stuff its 80/20. The new lead-less solder just isnt the same it doesn't seem to have the bite like the old stuff does

Maybe it's already been asked and I missed it . Why are you using lead vs any type of typical bondo ?
