Good question. I'd guestimate a few more months Its at my good friends Tom's shop in Temecula, so its not like I can jus' walk out to the garage an work on it. Fortunatley though his shop is across the street from my business so I can walk over & work on it. Tom and I work on it in the evenings & some week ends. He's also a master P car mechanic and has every cool tool known to man, so its a bit easier than a at home garage build. |

The pictures look GREAT. Once I get a few more miles on my car and the weather is nicer we will have to come down. Have a good New Year Mark |

12/31/2005 Got some good work done, cut several holes in the car for oil lines, modified fuel cell & rubber mounts, finished fabricating rubber mount oil cooler bracket plate.
Pedals assembled, they look wicked! BTW anybody know what those two bracket pieces are on the right? I had them powder coated for some reason, now I don't remember where they go. Happy New Year all. Attached image(s) |

1/7/06 Bulkhead fittings and -12 45AN fittings test fit. I decided to run the oil lines thru here instead of inside the cab. these will snake down next to the wiring harness by the fuel cell in a heat sleeve.

1/7/06 The biggest cut I have done on a teener 9X18" hole. This exit hole is 20% larger than the entrance hole in the front of the tub, for mo better flow baby.

Marv........Looks killer!
Are you running your oil lines through the tunnel?? I haven't decided where to run mine yet and I'm still thinking there has to be a cleaner way than most of what I've seen. |

No not thru the tunnel. Running along the outside GT style, but where most peeps go in the cab & around the pedals I did not want the lines inside. So I went up and inside the left front wheel well then thru the bulkhead panel where the radio antennae wire goes in, then down by the fuel cell, following the wiring harness.

Keep up the good work Marv.
Keep us posted on the cooler install, as many of us are doing the same. I also do not want to run the oil lines inside the cab. MMMM more pics of the routing please? Luke |

I ran my lines the same way. It was way better than running them inside. It
also helps with the cooling. |
