Project Nine - Program 944

In these two images I'm making a template for the fiberglass mat. Having the mat pre-cut really speeds up the process during lay-up.

The passenger side fenders are complete! Now for trimming and a test fit before continuing with the drivers side.
Here's a link to the Project Nine episode that includes a time laps of the fender lay-up.

Hi
No I'm running an LS 3 with 480hp was thinking of going to an LS 7 or built LS3 with 600 hp
I'm just not sure that the transmission can handle that much power the blowing up it seems to handle the 480 OK.
Not sure what would happen with the Additional horsepower any ideas?

Test fit....
The fenders are trimmed, I've spent about 15 min. with a rasp fitting the fenders, and then taped them to this chassis. Both of the wheels pictured are from the front of my racer. Size 18x12 with a 335/30 fitted. On the rear a 2" spacer was added to bring the wheel flush with the fender. At a later date I'll publish optimum wheel specifications.

As long as you keep it cool (the trans) and drive sensibly, you should be good.

...and now a group of images with the vents trimmed out of the fenders as intended. The fenders are only fitted to the chassis with tape as you will notice. The car is not yet ready for fenders.

This ole' girl is going to get the royal treatment, I'm just getting warmed up. Hahaha
Look for a build thread exclusively on this chassis very soon.

Three Wheelin'
Probably won't be flush over the 968's moulded sills and sill gaskets, although the broadfoot flares can work with 968's so maybe someone who has fitted those to a 968 can chime in.
