1. there will always be a number of people who will go out of their way to demonstrate; that for certain individuals, no amount of levity in posts (even if they are completely harmless) will be offered here on the no fun 44 forum.

2. given the slightest pretense, no oportunity to make a huge deal out of nothing, embarrass or to insult other members must ever be allowed to go to waste.

3. you have Kirra, Lennox Head, Bells and Byron Bay, still, you're complaining.

4. at least you're consistent.


p.s. bite me.


sorry for this immense distraction Tony.

i'll always be something of a free spirit on Rennlist.

and in the clearest terms that i can offer,

i love your car and thanks for-putting up all the great photos.

peace,

Odurandina

Looks good. What's the ETA for getting on track?

No. Not initially. However I do have the location where the battery normally resides reserved for the tank should I choose to dry sump it at a later date.

The reason being is that the oil pan I have on it now has never given me an oil pickup problem thus far. It's the RH pan with the 4 trap door & lid over the top of the sump design. It works real well.

But I am installing a 3 quart accusump directly into the block for insurance.

Just left Speed Force Racing, after tons of oil cooling plumbing, trans cooler cooling sys, and the exhaust system.

Dropped it off at Vision last night.... to finish up the flat bottom / tunnel, radiator/front brake ducting, dash fabrication, alignment, and more.....

Then it's off to get wired, then to body/paint.

Nice work! So just looking at the B/foot bumper panel, what are you doing re the ducting to the oil coolers and then where is that hot air going from there?

Is that some sort of radiator above the fan above the transaxle?? Water or oil?
