Good morning all! She runs I've only driven her twice since I got it all together but man this turbo is awesome! Still doing a little tuning here and there with my buddy he's the mad scientist I've just been doing as he says and sends lol I did...

On to the parking brake lever. There was some surface rust here and there and, though there was no way I was going to tamper with the semi-permanent assembly parts, I still wasn't content to leave it alone without cleaning it up as much as I...

Out with the blue:In with the new:

I did mention removing metal not needed right??? Yea deleted spare wheel well too

**UPDATE*** Yea I know 1 1/2 years later I did some deep searching on Facebook and found an 1G Alamo 12 row SMIC ver 2. (circ 1996)Back in June of 2022 these are pics of it at the sellers house, and then a pic of it on my car, literally. Some...

The ignition switch has gone bad. No power to anything unless it were in the starting position. Starts but only runs for a split second until the key returns to on position. I had to order a new switch & loom from Parts Geek. It comes as no...

Very good.... ironic I was just out in the shop last night working on the #32 car which I hope is ready for the track again by this spring.

Got the eclip of eBay, works perfect. Thanks again for this!Well the car is up and running. Drove it to work Monday, and even went to a cruise over the weekend and had zero issues whatsoever.Just working with the tuner to get the car dialed...

Another far and few between updateGot the car all back together, verified base timing and timing drift and car seems to be running really great so far! Getting a few kinks worked out with the tune but so far so good. Installed some new Titanium...

Hi everyone I thought I would do a dedicated pad selection article to cover as much of the compounds as possible rather then clog up the sale post. this should offer me more space to add them as I find them with part numbers and links if...

The last few years have been nuts and not always in a good way. My bandwidth has been so limited I went atleast a year without even thinking about this project. Thankfully things are starting to settle down a little bit and I've been finding the...

I thought this photo deserved its own, dedicated post. I added some choice clothing to my wardrobe and took this photo to summarize DSM ownership.Owning a functional DSM is an awful lot of work, but you do it anyway because you’re the type of...

Big milestone completed on the brakes; all lines have been completed!!! To finish this up, I started by running a line to the rear to create a t-junction back there:After attempting my first flare on the line to the rear right, my flaring...

As I suspected, the rear lines, while much simpler to route, had their own challenges to overcome because FUBAR. I had to drill out several bolts and chase some threads to preserve the original line routing bosses. I did this about 4 or 5 times...

I finally got the front brakes completely done. The last line was definitely the toughest. I had to start by cleaning, drying, and mounting the firewall cover because that's a critical system interaction for the line that runs across the engine...

The discerning observer will notice a mistake here:Although you can find a few pictures on the web kinda sorta detailing this area, if I'd have just thought about Bernoulli's law for a second, it'd have been a no-brainer. Anyway, I had to redo...

I made more progress than I expected today. I've now run 5 of the 9 hard lines I'll need to finish the job. Started with the t-junction for the front calipers:Ran this buster to the front left:Ran the jumper between flex lines at the...

Wow it's been over three years since I posted anything. Mainly because COVID made recovery of the car a royal pain in the ass. Long and short of things is: - 2021 spent waiting on the race fab shop to get the new aero stuff on. That didn't go...

Wow I haven't posted in a while.Hmm. Car's not even close to being ready to race and due to the shop not putting full time into my car it won't be for the Ultimate Track Car Challenge. I'll post more on that later.I did a loooooot of work...
