Great work man, Rock falls the start of the 2016 season right?

MY GOD!! Youre just a machine with this car!

Thanks for all the feedback!

I'm kind of excited to see the improvements at Rockfalls this spring. Traction should be better with concrete.

I installed the new snail, and went from a 3.5" down pipe to a 4" too.

The exhaust wheel is way more efficient and 10mm larger, should make more power everywhere in the power curve. The Garrett is a 10 blade vs. The 11 blade on the pte.

I need to finish up the exhaust and install my 300m output shaft. That's all that's planned for this winter.

Made some progress last weekend, I dropped my transmission and installed a 300m output shaft. The new shaft is on the right:

I also finished up the ss to aluminum joint transition on the exhaust and routed it under the oil pan. 4"is a very tight fit. It's lessential than 1/4 inch of clearance between the transfer case and oil pan, measure twice and cut once!

The oil filter looks a lot closer than it really is, over an inch away.

I need to get one more vband aluminum flange to finish up the exaust. I really like the Vibrant quick vband clamps with male and female flange sections for alignment.

It's nice they have that on the aluminum pieces, I have used their SS v band and it's very nice. Great progress man.

Super close to being finished up with all the winter upgrade plans.

I haven't even started my winter upgrade plans.

Have you seen the posting for KOTS at top end dragways up north?
