Roadster build is progressing

Rate this Entry
Hi all,

Haven't posted in awhile, about 2 months, just getting around to an update. Since last post, have prepped and installed the motor (Tuff Dawg Ford 347 stroker), Ramforce HD clutch, MCleod universal steel bell housing, TKO 600 tranny, FFR driveshaft, headers, Holley mechanical fuel pump, Quickfuel 680 cfm four barrel carburetor, MSD electronic distributer/ignition system and spark plug wires, CNC aluminum triple hydraulic/brake fluid reservoirs, RAM internal hydraulic clutch throwout bearing and line, and brakes and lines front and rear. Have gotten a lot done, but still a lot left to do. . . . Just means more fun :). So far, so good. . . . Have the 17" Halibrand replica wheels, 9" fronts and 10.5" rears, and NITTO NT555 tires, 245/45-17 fronts, and 315/35-17 rears. Haven't gotten around to having them mounted yet, but itching to do so, maybe this coming week. Not far from having a rolling chassis (go cart), just need more time to work on it, but my job keeps getting in the way (a good problem to have now days) :). Anyways, there are several pictures below. Good luck to everyone.

    Where did you get that pully setup? Looks great!

    They are March pulleys. Got mine at Performance Automotive, one of the Factory Five preferred vendors. Look under "vendors" on the forum. Also, you can get them at just about any on-line automotive parts store (JEGS, Summitt, etc.).
