the cage was built from scratch. there were originally 4 identical cars like mine in a race team. they were all built up with the same original parts and people doing the work. 3 orange ones and one black one.

here's a really cool old picture of the 3 orange ones

I looked at I think this one or one of the other ones to buy. This was before I lost my good job tho lol. They are very well built track cars for sure. I am glade that your are still improving on it from what it was. Should be fun this year out at Miller. I will get back into it after I get into a house this year Keep it up man and keep at it on the track.

arp wheel studs on the front hubs, built the turn down and made my first weld (woot), got all the new tires mounted, and sketched up mounting ideas for the splitter to the chassis.

How do you get the bumper on with the support straps in place, or vice versa - how do you bolt on the support straps with the bumper in place? One of the best looking mounting setups I've ever seen for the APR splitter.

Thank you, the front 4 supports have to be bolted in after the bumper cover is in place. I can get to the two outside upper bolt holes where my headlights used to be. The two middle ones I can reach through the front of the bumper (pulled out the center mesh). Then the bottom just bolt underneath the splitter for all of them. In total, I have 12 mounting points. It is very rigid and I'm happy with the way it came out.

I'm looking to switch from the 110 leaded to E85 and maybe do the BBK upgrades to my IX turbo. I think a Walbro 255lph and ID 1000cc injectors should do it for 25psi, thoughts?

Also thinking about switching from the MBC to the HOA or Grimmspeed 3 port BCS, get a high flow O2 housing, and possibly an exhaust manifold before getting tuned?

also a picture from last weekend
