Thank you very much
I really apreciate it
My project is exactly 7", I though about briging it down a little more.
I realy like how Troys car looks from the side
I am sure that the spoiler you build for the rear bumper helps give it the "look"
Keep up the good work.

Troy
your project is turning out great
I am looking forward to your updates after you get the car back

Thanks
I was planning on putting some pics up, once the car is a little further down.
Right now the car is really ruff.

Wow, I just typed up a big update & then lost it all........it was a good post too.....

I'll try again....

Attached to the frame we had made up under the nose of the car we used to have 2 Grade 8 bolts to protect the nose from scrapes. They worked great.... however, Troy wanted wanted something that wasn't so noisey when they touched. So Troy bought some rollers for the nose. They had very nice heavy hardware& we figures out how to mount them solidly.







We found a suitable Power Steering fluid cooler & found a place to mount it.....







Troy & I agreed that we could make the cooling system better if we added an additional scoop up under the nose to scoop in a little more air. It's mounted directly under the Heat Exchanger.











We took the fuel tank out to install the larger fuel pump. while it was out we installed the new fuel lines & Filter. We also made some 3/4" alum. coolant tubes to take the coolant from the Intercooler to the heat exchanger.







While installing all these coolers & parts, the big thing people don't think about are connecting everything like the P.S. cooler & heat exchanger.

Hmm. I know that's the best location, but couldn't you get a shark "fin"? I have both of my XM radio inside near the front windshield in the middle. It's a ugly piece so I like it out of sight. I get good reception unless I'm in a tunnel or going around a mountain. Sometimes my signal is blocked when passing big rigs since the chopper sits really low to the ground.
