I didn't do anything. You can never have too many motors though. The motor i dynoed the car on was a throw together motor. It had dented rotors from the last go round and i am sure the springs were not 100% either. Also i found out i put the wrong side seal springs in too, i used the S4 type instead of the S6 ones . So now i am building my "good" motor

Eric if it were my street car i would go with the steel you seem to be doing a good job with it and its easier to work with.
Use plastic bed liner it dries but wont rub off or stay sticky it sound deadns good also!

Nothing. You're not planning on driving this thing cross country are you?

Sorta stuck now, waiting for the seam sealer to cure before I coat the inside of the wheel wells with bedliner.

So, I got board and boxed up the bottom front section. The part where I cut out the driveshaft hole, that follows the contour of the driveshaft tunnel, in case someone was gonna give me grief for not cutting a uniform half moon shape .

I didn't have any big peices of cardboard to mock up the center section so I had to cut up a old drain pain. Anyhow, this should give you a idea of how I'm going to do it.

Unless someone can tell me why this won't work, I think this is how I'm going to do it.

Got the front half done and seam sealed. Gonna hold off until I get tuned to finish off the rear. Still not 100 % sure about what I'm going to do back there since I need a sealed door to access the fuel cell.

Anyhow, I guess this will do......... still not 100% sure that I like how it turned out. I left the front right and left sides un paneled because I wanted the crossmember accessible for when I get a roll bar, the roll bar will tie right into that. That won't be for awhile though....
