Thanks for the help Burnie blocked it back as much as I could and she is all coated up now.

Just fitted a s14 (non abs) brake booster. Its 60mm deep instead of 100mm so it allows the wilwood billet master cylinder to fit.

Got the new seat today. Rails and sliders on and in for a test fit before they head off to the trim shop.

Wow you weren't kidding about giving the car a birthday
How long do you estimate before your driving it again?
Cheers David

Hi David, my goal is December 2016. But if it takes a bit longer than than that's ok just want it as mint as it can possibly be.

New uber small valve banks arrived. Going to be so much easier to fit being half the size of standard valves.

Build is looking good. You have some nice Goody's going into the car. How are you going with the certification of all your modifications?

Mopar300 · Post by **Mopar300** » Fri Feb 12, 2016 8:13 pm

Hopefully well. Everything has been done according to the bible and certifier is coming for an inspection end of March. I'll have the new engine in by than all 6.7 litres of it.....

That is nice! I can hear the rumble already
Is it a crate motor?
What happen to the old engine?
You will be able to compete in class E next year at Taupo

Yep it's a 360 chrysler stroked to 408 from blueprint engines
in the states.
445hp with 450nm of torque. So it should go ok.
Sold the old tt engine a couple of years ago on TM.
What's class "E" ?????

Greensheep · Post by **Greensheep** » Sat Feb 13, 2016 11:24 pm

E class is 4101cc and above, I would suggest that yours at 6.7 liters would probably be the largest engine in that class, it's a fun event for all to have play with their cars, it's not serious , everyone is grouped (groups of 6 if i remember correctly)with other drives with very simular lap times regardless of the vehicle or class they fit into
Next staturday is when it is being run this year at Taupo
Look forward to seeing more of the build

Oh cool, I'd definitely been keen on that. I doubt I would be competitive with airbag suspension but
I'd still been keen to get out there for a run around with all the others.

Sunday morning got up early and decided to draw my new gauge cluster.
Came down to work and started cutting it out on the laser.
