Anything exciting in store for this motor?

Nothing yet. But it made more HP than mine, and I think mine is due for a head gasket - it got a little hot the last time I ejected a crank pulley.

How did the 0 Toe work for you?

No discernible difference in the handling. Its FWD, it just wants to go strait.

While swapping engines I noticed the stock clutch line was starting to weep around one of the crimp fittings, not wanting to risk bashing the insides of my close-ratio gear box it was time for an upgrade. So I ordered the stainless steel braided unit from Micro Image, it should be more than up to the task.

The 99 car is ready to race again... The good motor is in and tuned, alignment is set, new front fenders without flares are on. Next stop, Buttonwillow this weekend for a Cal Club SCCA Double Rational race weekend.

After this event last year I pulled the trans and changed the final drive, swapped all the 13" wheels for 15" wheels and made some suspension changes - I could not get my car on 13"s to go as fast as the Bestwick Yaris on 15"s.

If all goes well this weekend I will only need a fresh set of tires and a car wash before the Runoffs.

Gotta say the car looks better without those flares, nice and clean looking now.

BTW are you running the 4.3 final drive or the 4.1?

I love racing communities. Everyone is willing to help everyone.

Any vid clips from the weekend?

Not sure if I got anything on Saturday, forgot to put the camera in before I got in the car, and I am not sure if the person who put it in for me got it set right. But I should have some from Sunday, although nothing terribly exciting. Will work on getting it up later this week.

Man has the year gone by quick... On Thursday we load up and make the long tow to Road America in Elkhart Lake, Wis. In an effort to get every bit of speed on those long straits I built added a little aero treatment on the front. The only disappointment being I have remove/install it to get the car off and on the trailer. But chances are it will only last one race anyway, its so low the first time I dip a tire its going to hit the ground.

Just picked up the B-Spec Yaris from storage, it is taking its final ride, giving its parts to rebuild the H Prod car. In a few weeks the leftovers will head to the crusher after only being raced twice.

Bluevitz-rs · 10-30-2013, 07:52 PM

Well at least they get a chance to get used and shown off instead of just getting scrapped.

Jason@SportsCar · 12-23-2013, 01:55 PM

I just leave this here...

Bluevitz-rs · 12-23-2013, 02:17 PM

1 off or are you making a few? Looks sweet!

Just one. I have the specs, so it could be replicate, but it would not be cost effective for most people.

xnamerxx · 12-23-2013, 03:21 PM

Looks fast wonder how much power it'll make
