Thx for the kind words. With the present Covid situation I am thankful I have a truck build to keep me busy. Look forward to chatting with you.

Re: Cgt project

Waiting for parts so I switched to the audio install. Not much of a woodworker but am happy how the subwoofer box came out.

Re: Cgt project

Have been working away on my Cgt. This thing has fought me a bit. Lots of paint problems, Budnik has to remake my wheels. Now my interior guy's wrists are a problem and not sure when that will get done....whoaaaa is me, waaaa. Lol.
Now that is out of my system. Getting down to final details. Wiring and plumbing are mostly done, just waiting on a few parts. Installed my RTX gauges. I have had Dakota Digital products before, but this is impressive. Very well made....although it has a price. Received my Radio back from Wood's radio with the Aurora design upgrade. This will control my Audison 8 channel amplifier. Hopefully I get my wheels soon, as I am working on assembly in my poor mans paint booth and need to paint a few more parts.

Re: Cgt project

What was the issue on the wheels?

Trans cooler/fan set-up?

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Front wheels had wrong mounting pad for my Wilwood brakes.
That is the transcooler and fan. Ran out of room out front and less heat for intercooler and condenser/rad.

That's the 'what & why' I was assuming. Suck on the wheels.
