Hey Gifford,
I called Autopower on Monday. The roll cage is in production and should be ready for pick-up Aug 18. That should give me enough time to get it in by Sep 3, IF I have finished all the current stuff
Tonight I took out the driveshaft, Dedion cross-member (exposes Dedion mount), and the transaxle mounts. I will rebuild the driveshaft (hopefully tomorrow evening) and then take it out for balancing.
By Sep 3 the car should be mechanically solid - we'll see. The goal of the current maintenance like work is mostly to get a reliable car.
The car will be 155 HP with a weight of around 2400 lbs at best - still no match for the 2 liter gtvs that are easily around 2100 lbs with 170+ HP... Of course, they are probably also in a higher class. Anyway, it will be fun
Jes
