Re: Knuckles build thread

going manual rack or staying with the power rack with no assist?

 

[Knuckles@Empire]

Re: Knuckles build thread

for right now with no assist unless i can get a good deal on a good manual one, more important stuff to put money into at the moment.

Re: Knuckles build thread

Nice progress, that motor looks bad ass sitting in there.
any clearance issues with the hood?

Re: Knuckles build thread

Nice build there, Knuckles...I think you're gonna need to cage that Cobra! :notworthy:

 

[Knuckles@Empire]

Re: Knuckles build thread

@Dal, no issues as of right now and i dont forsee and in the future i run a cowl hood on it. Right now the hood is getting airbrushed so i should have pics of that next week stoked for that. Big shout out to Twisted airbrushing who decided to throw some sponsorship my way, gonna make my boys proud when track time comes.

@jabird indeed a cage is coming, the car should turn faster than 8.50 so it looks like 12 point here i come. I know a few folks from S and W racecars so i will prolly get a cage from them and weld it in, OR Ryclef can work something out with me and i can bring him my car depending how southern he is in Cali.

Re: Knuckles build thread
