Nice car! Do you have any pics of the drivetrain? Rear suspension? Best of luck with the first track outings. Get some video if you can, I'd love to see that car run!
I don't do a very good of keeping up with the pictures. I will take new ones of the rear suspension/drivetrain. For now, I've included a couple of constructions shots (several months old). You can see the front 4-link pick up points (fully adjustable for anti-squat/dive), the 16 inch-wide wheel tubs, and some of the duct work that runs to the rear end and trans coolers in the trunk area. The toe links are also vertically adjustable to control rear bumpsteer and the lower link adjusters give a fair amount of camber gain/moment center adjustment. In the "wind tunnel" shot, you can see the C-4 bearing carrier and the 4-link through the wheel. The outer axles are hooked to a very beefy/highly modified C-3 differential by Drive Shaft Shop aluminum (1000 HP-rated) half shafts. The "trans" picture shows the mods to get the TKO installed with the engine so far back. The older engine picture is a mock-up, but it shows the set-back (before I moved it the last couple of inches). The firewall is now flush with the forward edge of the windshield. Note the removable cowl for distributor access. The headers are 2-2.125 stepped tube with merge collectors and a 3.5 inch Dr. Gas crossover into Flowmasters.
Thanks for posting more pictures. I can see the huge amount of work you have into the car. The suspension should give you every kind of adjustment you'd ever need.Very nice! Can't wait to see more.

Response to groovyjay. I like your approach to the C3-R, especially the Guldstrand 5-link. I used a C-4 outer bearing carrier, but the geometry is basically the 5-link that GM adapted from the Guldstrand and Greenwood 5-links. I used much longer, adjustable forward links to cut down on the roll steer, and the toe link is adjustable vertically at both ends to adjust bump steer. The Driveshaft Shop built the custom rear half shafts and the stub axles are from Tom's Differential (heat treated). I have just redesigned the bracket for the inboard pick-up points for the lower strut rod -- I am using upper control arm adjustment "slugs" to facilitate multiple vertical mounting points (to change roll center and camber gain) without the change in strut rod length that eccentric cams cause.
