Great eye candy. First, those beautiful spindles/uprights!Criticism for the LS not because it’s Ford v Chevy. So am I horribly wrong the main LS advantage is compact heads and mass production cost benefits?Yes it’s more expensive but the breathing is smashingly better, drivability over a...
Best thoughts going to you. My selfish is seeing your often parallel development, but literal mountains more personal labor and dedicated racing effort, to get insight into my car.My set up is custom cross plane, Dailey dry sump, MoTeC management but retaining OE can-bus chassis electronics...
Congratulations on all this coming together. Very exciting. Clean, well planned and executed work. And wow on the corner weights! I love it! It’s going to be such a joy how nimble the car will feel. If it’s important beyond the fun you’re going to have, you may have one of the fastest S550...
I like the idea of all solid: give me the information from the road. You want comforts of your living room or do you want to drive? And yes, always on my mind, best suspension, SLA, cantilever rear set, inspiration from Paul's Automotive Engineering, the new GT3, GT4, or GTD. We can't rethink...
"Reasonable in at least a few areas." Understood, I think. This is from a guy virtually building a race car by hand using what's good from Ford, best suppliers, and hand crafting everything else? What exactly are the "CJ/lowering mounts"? I was ready today to order the Watson solid engine mounts...
Cheers to all the Honey Badger progress and inspiration you are providing all of us following. I wish you were my next-door neighbor (but then I’d probably be a nuisance to you).I’d like to discuss the lowering of the whole engine assembly. I think my configuration will be like the redone...
Looks fantastic. Really looking forward to the Dailey dry sump install details. Are the K-member and motor mounts stock? I’m asking because I’m planning on using Steeda’s Road Race K-member and motor mounts when my redone engine with Dailey dry sump is installed. This setup should allow lowering...
Yep. It's really cool to work the S550. I didn't get mine because it was a Mustang GT350. I got it after driving several and thought it the best to drive under $100k. But, and I still do it today, I look back at it after parking it, and it looks good. Great lines with its sexy hips. Corvette and...
Huge work. I love that you're all in. I know this is for strength, rigidity, safety and reliability. Now that you've demonstrated so much to this, what do you think about the weight (literally, how much mass you are throwing around) of this platform? I mean, it's a bit heavy, but if you have the...
Ok, thanks. About what I thought you might say. More oil is better, especially if the tank fit difference is negligible. So much is negligible until actual fitment happens.
I've been running AP Racing front brakes (didn't pop for the rears), saving 15lbs per side over OEM, for about 18 months now. Like changing from work boots to running shoes.Switching back to your dry sump install, please remind me what oil tank you opted for, the 2.5 or the 3 gallon? I'm not...
