Good to see he's doing the oil lines the right way, the tapped pan thing is shitty, I had to do that with an old S-Trim. Does he have a timeline for when he wants to be done?

Kevin, you can feel better buddy. It got the Luke seal of approval that you are doing things correctly! *WHEW!*

He has no expectations of a schedule since he will only be able to work on it in his rare spare time. He travels for work during the week and then still has a family at home to spend time with on the weekends. He is also tuning part time to make the extra project money which obviously takes time away as well.

In short, it will be done when it gets done. Then it will be submitted for your all knowing approval.

So are we going to turn his thread all gay like mines and David's?

Which is great for a track car taking a lot of driver error out of the equation.

No. I answered his question.


I'm looking forward to see what/how Kevin does the tuning on this thing. I know he's looking forward to tinkering with the tune as well. I'm thinking 700rw on 7lbs of boost should be an easy task on e85.

Pretty much. You set the trap on that one and I played the truth card and got it thrown in my face... Figured it was better than lying saying something stupid like - had other plans or something even more lame.

Should be a fun build. I am looking forward to it. I will keep you updated as it comes together.

I ordered bulk head fittings for the oil pan and ordered restrictors for the oil feed line to the turbos the other day.

I will get some pictures up tomorrow of the kit.
