Hey i tried uploading videos here last night but it won't let me. Are these forums photos only?

UPDATE!! WE HAVE ELECTRONICS. We are close to the first startup. Couple weeks away from a first test drive I would say. It's crunch time. The weather has been teasing us up here in new york. I've been putting in all the extra hours on this thing trying to get it ready to go for spring! It's...

Vepagoo 36 Inch 35LB/156N Gas... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D4V9YHLR?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share , that's the ones I used. I would recommend a lower lb strength one. The length is good for where I put them but I would go down to like 25lb ones.

A lot of my inspiration came from frankenkarts videos. I've watched every single one at least twice lol. I stumbled across that build when I was doing research while waiting for my chassis to arrive. I too prefer the sound of a v8 and I was initially trying to buy a more plug an play style kit...

Made some progress in the cockpit area. Front end got some bracing. Radiator is mounted. Pedals mounted. Reservoirs mounted. Used a c6 throttle pedal and cut the bracket to modify it so I could mount it properly. Steering column is all in. Really happy with how it's turning out so far. Will end...

I initially wanted to run it backwards but the way the exhaust came out it wouldn't be feasible. I would end up heat soaking the throttle body and intake piping.

Making progress. Cooling system is just about done. Few more odds and ends and then it's time to get some electronics ordered!

Sorry that took so long. Better late than never lol

Been awhile since I've updated. Been busy with life but I'm just about done with the roof panel scalloping. Will cut out some carbon fiber templates to bolt in for the roof.

I'm using an electric water pump with custom AN lines. -16an lines actually slide perfectly in the lower chassis tubes. No need to winch them in and out. Also using an ICT low mount alternator bracket.

Water tested the tank for leaks. I'm shocked, it actually holds 18.75 gallons.

110in

Wheels are c7 zr1 replicas. Front is 18x10 with 275-35ZR18 toyo proxy. Rear is 19x12 with 325-30ZR19 toyo proxy.

Here's a quick update. Been a little while. Have been busy doing side jobs to fund this crazy project. Fuel cell is mounted. Got a new set of wheels and tires as well.
