That is the best-looking front fender I've seen yet! Something you might want to consider for your side skirts, is a horizontal lip- like a running board- to keep air from rolling under the car.
Really nice work.

A recent PM asked about ordering the rear fender flair option for early cars. We will be developing that when we install a complete kit on a volunteer, per previous posts.

We have been making and selling kits for the newer bodies. Just shipped one to South America, thanks to 928 Motorsports' marketing program. We're mocking up an OB kit as I write this.

Also, we will be installing a Vette TT and Transaxle in my car shortly. We have already put it in an LS1 powered 86.5, but want to do testing in a developed track car.

We are also working on the adaption of the Vette drive line behind the 928 motor. Not too sure what the demand will be for such a set-up. However, the benefits of the Vette tranny are substantial for racers.

Stay tuned.

your new engine sure will test the strength of the Vette transaxle..... but with plenty of full race Vettes out there...clearly they can handle the power....

Track or street, with the tranny being the weak link and the number of 928 tranny's out there dropping thi in my opinion is what is needed more than anything aside from Greg fixing the oiling issues!

Hope you're right. While it's fun to build this stuff, it's also very expensive. Naturally, we would like to sell a few of the parts we develop that allow for the swap in order to at least break even.

Also, I'll probably start a new thread on this in the next few days.

with gents like mr brown, herr kuhn, and all the rest pushing the boundaries on the 928 powerplant, i think there is definitely a need for someone developing a solution for the rest of the drivetrain. Please post more info, pics, & videos of your progress. good luck!

p.s. love seeing the "wife's track car" in the sig. i guess you get off easier than most of the rest of the trackers in the significant others department
