Not too bad looking for a race car set up!:D

Custom inner fender panels and side covers with NO wires or vac lines to add clutter.

Good shot of the vac pump set up as well.

The powder coated pieces makes it easy to keep clean and looking fresh.

Nice job hiding the AC and cruz too.:D
 
Got anymore pics . I'd like to see more of the inner fenders. It looks great.

How if this Steve?:smile: This was a test fit before final painting and other items were installed.

Just a few more rivets in those inner panels, and it'd look like Boeing made them. ('cept they'd be two YEARS late;) ) Well, actually it would take three times as many, but they look great. Hey.......why make a race engine with a '80's SMOG pump on it? You gotta pass emissions, or somethin'?;) :biggrin: Hope it runs as good as it looks.

That "smog" pump has added benefits not originally intended.:)

I can go about twice as far between oil changes - from about 5 miles to 10 miles.:cool: Seriously, lot less contamination in the oil now.

Also, it does not "mark" my pit area with oil dropping after each run. Been leak-free for a month now.

As far as how it runs, last time at the track I slowed it down to run a 10.0 index class and it was set at 18 psi. Made 3 dial-in passes, 10.008, 10.06 and a 10.04, so I am VERY pleased with it!:biggrin:
