I'd strongly recommend emailing the tech guys before you really tackle this, if you haven't already. Can't hurt to make sure you have something cleared and don't waste your time only to find out they'll make you run EC or nail you with lots of penalty laps.

I emailed the central region tech inspector before we even started. He didn't raise any issues when I told him our plans.

Cool, sounds like you have your ducks in line. Best of luck! We're simplifying our setup for the chumpionship, will be going back to NA (we've blown 2 headgaskets now and we're not sure why) and using the extra money to perhaps add a camber kit and replace the rear struts, maybe a few bushings and we likely also have a bent suspension arm somewhere.

I have less than a month. Pops is leaving for 2 weeks on Monday for a baseball park tour in his RV. I can do some stuff while he's away but there's a lot I won't be able to. I'm hoping to nail down the fuel system and wiring while he's gone. Lots to do before September.

Looks like a fun but time consuming project. Hope all goes well and you can go out racing with it!

That bellhousing has to be worth more then the car + trans plus fuel cell? How much do you have into this and are you prepared to have.someone buy it for 500? I would.

Looks like a Bill Hincher bellhousing, the kit's around $300.

Not bad at all, and very well designed bellhousing.

I use Bill's W series bellhousing, Bill is a great guy if you ever need help.
