Yeeeeeeeeeeeee haw!

I have a modified version of this on my race car (for class rules). There are many photos in my build thread and I can also pull up some from a photoshoot in 2019.

Good point about the variety of applications...HRMMMMMAlso quick note on your shock reservoir mount, I would strongly suggest a second support to keep the reservoir from vibrating itself to death in a cantilever. It looks like there's a threaded hole nearby in the chassis that you might be...

This also perks my interest...haven't modeled in 3D in a long time but how hard can it be? Question is do I have stuff I would actually use this for HRMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

For anyone thinking of attending, this is always a GREAT event with a big turnout, especially in the Race and TT groups. Car is still down and various other obligations prevent me from making it this time, however.

Wiring looks like pro-level work. Great stuff man.

The engine weighs around 500lbs dressed, so if you lower that an inch, you are also lowering the resultant CG of the vehicle, which will reduce the lever effect of the CG on the suspension as the car rolls, pitches, and dives.

Those problems tend to "resolve themselves" over time; hopefully nobody gets hurt during that process. Give people like that a wide berth. Sucks you have to limit your options and take care because of someone else's inadequacies.

Happy Birthday, @Bill Pemberton ! Make it a full-throttle day!

Happy Birthday dude!

Birds are interesting creatures. I have a few in my life nowadays but much smaller, haha. Have fun!

Another option, although not the best one, is you could get a take-out engine from a wrecked 350 from www.thepartsfarm.com

I cannot comment on NVH related to the CorteX pieces as my car is a pure race car, but I can at least attest to the quality and fitment of the CorteX stuff.

You may need to tilt the engine down at the rear slightly, apply pry bars carefully, "wiggle" it side to side a bit to dislodge it. Make sure the shifter isn't bound up in the chassis hole, etc. Just a little persuasion...Maybe a few blows with a rubber mallet around the perimeter of the...

Happy Birthday Bob!
