Finished the rear muffler, and put in a pipe silencer. So it's less noisy, wich means it's fun to drive long trips, not tiresome cause of the noise

Also i found the stock fuel pump in a parts pile and decided to use it and some other misc parts to make a parts cleaner.



Mocked up the engine with the semi pp housings, looking forward to getting the rebuild kit so i can reassemble the engine and get it in the car and have some fun with it.

Fått gjort rotorne nesten helt ferdig, har også gått over side sealsene.

Checked the sideseals, and all except one was good. And that is propably the reason the front iron might be a throw away now...


Rotors looked good, except for one rotorface, wich had rusted and had lot's of pits. So i guess that is also a nice paperweight...






So far i probably need a new front iron, new sideseals and a new rotor.
Will buy a dial indicator and check the irons properly next week.

Cool, the fighter plane motif. Now you just have to mount .50s under the pop-ups and people cutting you off will no longer be a problem. I like the speaker surround, very clean, it looks factory.

Just came back from the first track weekend of the season.



Came in a bit to fast thru a chicane and lost control, vent sideways out of the track and turned the car on it's side, this was early on friday. Fixed what needed fixing and made a lexan window, so i drove the rest of friday, saturday and sunday, the damage is only cosmetic and the car is still going strong, just need some major bodywork...

My new UIM

FD vs t2, adapterplate should be fairly easy to make.

Started working on the T2 lim so it works with the pp's


My first attempt at porting.





Finished ports. hope they work good in conjunction with the pp's.

Oh that sucks man. At least it's still drivable though.

I hope to get the majority of the bodywork sorted this weekend so i can start focusing on the semi pp build again, have all the parts for the shortblock, just need to get a new radiator and build a intake manifold.
