A little update again, since I've managed to get a few things done here and there.
Mounted up the radiator and intercooler. These pics will look quite familiar to Scott and Jody, LOL.
I still have to order my Vintage Air stuff and get my condenser mounted as well.
The RS headlight doors won't hinge open all the way due to the intercooler but I already knew that issue was coming. I am going to fab up a mount for the door faces so that they can be popped in/out.
Made up some closeout panels out of 6061 sheet for the fenders where the 4" tubing will pass through to the air filters. They still need fine tuning and bead rolling but, you get the idea.
I decided to run a wilwood pedal assembly w/balance bar and the small masters, so I made a 3/16" plate mount/panel for that, and sank it into the firewall. It's just tacked in place for now.
For the bottom section I made a plate as well. The lower section is sank (sunk?) into the firewall about 3/8" further than the top section.
Once I measured the angle of the dangle, I jigged up the plate and bored an angled hole through it. I found some nice SS tubing with an ID a tick over 2", so the column tube is a nice slip fit inside.
I am going to drill and tap the tube for some set screws, and also cut a 3/32" groove into the ID of the tube at the lower end, to receive an o-ring to keep any water/dirt from getting into the tube.
Well, that's about all for now. time to clean up. -Rob
