talked to shawn last night...
rotating assembly is balanced...he's ready to start machining the RHS block
still waiting on the custom inconel exhaust valves
Hes working on the 6-bolt conversion for my ETP265 heads
most of the parts to do the wiring of the car showed up yesterday so I've got a busy weekend ahead of me

Some random pics...
painted the part of the exhaust pipes that protrude thru the fenders...also can see the carbon fiber fender trim rings
charging lugs
main electrical panel...panel is 85% wired internally...just need to add 4 relays for window motors, a relay for the engine cooling fan, and an ignition relay...
mount for the BigStuff3 and EGT module...just have the frame done...ordering a sheet of carbon fiber to replace the cardboard "mockup"

Looks great man. I like the wiring panels on the passenger's side like where you put the BS3, any needed changes, wiring issues that you could need to address, short of a "short" somewhere, are easily dealt with.
The red fiberglass... I understand why you are putting that under the dash... I'd hide that too LOL.
Looks great!

Brian, Phil, question for both of you. Probably a seriously stupid question, but how are you getting the oil back to the motor from the turbo??
I did read this thread, again, last night, looking for the answer, lol. sorry for the ignorance. looking good as always!

Looks good Brian! Question for the guys who have basically rewired a race car. Have you followed schematics online or do you see whats you have left after a bunch of accessory removal and figure it out? That circuit board looks confusing but manageable. I'm more curious than anything. My car is a LONG way of becoming anything close to this, if ever.

interesting, i just thought that your turbos looked too low for that style of a drain, i guess i was way wrong.
and i was very curious about the dry sump with that. lol. infact i was typing that with my original reply to carsandwomen, but really didnt want to look stupid.
Now, that i do, could you maybe explain why having the dry sump means you dont need one??
