Hi Everyone,

I have had some delay's in the build.. having some parts getting delayed and I had many people in person tell me my roll cage was not the safest due to poor welding/bending.. So I have taken the car to a buddy to create me a new cage!

Here is some of the more recent pic's of the progress on my car:

I am most excited to insert this little gem from Aftermarket industries in! This unit is a 3 walbro pump surge tank that fits direct into the ATL fuel cell!

Ouch.

How much is the cage going to run? I'm trying to get a welded in cage for road course setup and I don't want to screw up the bolt in auto power cage I currently have.

I also did the same to my rotating assembly but didn't build the engine yet

I didn't know that this mods allows you to rev to 10K , I was expecting 8k without too many problems but 10?

I also know that it makes you rev faster , and I believe you get safer boost in top end ...but I'm not really sure as I have never experienced it before

Thanks for the news

Also need to modify the oil pressure to be at a minimum of 120psi when at the 10k rpms.

Are you going to go with a external oil pressure regulator ?
How are you planning to tweak it ?

A good friend of mine offered to weld up my cage for me. He owns a business in Nisswa MN Mid-Sota Metal Works. I think he did a great job!
