    Steering column weight

    I am in the process of fitting a quick disconnect for my steering wheel. While at it I weighted the components of the steering column . As I need to shorten it, I will try to make it lighter too . I may have to move/replace the ignition switch and turn indicator to the center console, race car...

    corvette / camaro front springs

    Would you know per chance if the front spring of a c3 corvette is similar than a camaro 1st generation. It appears from the measurements that I have the vette and the camaro share the same diameter and free height . But I don't have any to check side by side. Any help appreciated.

    Cooling the front discs.

    Looking for a way to provide some fresh air to the front discs with the calipers in front of the spindles is not really easy. So after some time trying to route the ducting hose with not a proper fitment, I decided to relocate the calipers at the rear of the spindles. Way more room to do what...

    Road racing pads

    I had sitting on the shelf 2 full set of race pads from Guldstrand, and just used one right now with factory/quality type discs. And expecting LMP1 braking feel. Well !! BAD MOVE ! After beading them in and back in the workshop and wheels off , I found that after maybe 7 miles the discs are...

    Brake pedal travel

    If you own a Vette with a not boosted system, 1inch master cylinder, could you let me know the pedal travel that you have before your car actually brakes ? On mine it appears that I need to push nearly 2 inch before something happen. I am not complaining about no brakes here, just that I not...

    Hood support/stay

    On my non original hood, the mounting point for the support is lower than the factory one ! Would you know if a 72/73 support/stay would work. I tried to modify the original sliding support, but the geometry is different due to the lower, upper mount. So maybe a scissor action like the 72 could...

    Ride on mower battery for race car

    Looking at a lightweight battery for my racer to be, I was thinking what could be the differences between a ride on mover, and a proper race "built" battery. Beside the quality of it, like Lithium or similar, stronger casing. I found some ride on 300 cca or more ,40 aH , at quite low prices. And...

    Questions about differential

    In the parts that I have to built my racer, I have an apparently rebuilt 4.10 diff (told by the P.O) that I am having a closer look at. The free lateral play in the stub axles was quite alarming enough to make me removing the cover. As it has been stored with no oil in it, you start to...

    Posting pictures
