BTW - you should see the ghetto rig on the pipes until we get the new ones made... it makes the Land Cruiser look professional. |
Yes, fixed.
HELL YEAH!!! Sounds great... I bet it feels good to get her started. Header wrap smoking like a mofo! My first ride ever in a vette was in brand new '76 sting ray. I remember it clearly. It's a neat car. Even the door handles are cool. |

It's a neat car. Even the door handles are cool. I am sooo glad I got it running; what a huge weight off my shoulders; and I learned to not trust Haynes manuals. |
Looking good! Can't wait to see it finished!:)
|
awesome Kane....she sounds really great!!!
:D: |
Exhaust leak? what exhaust leak? I don't see no stinkin' exhaust leak! :rofl:
GRATS on getting this beauty fired up, that's one SMOKIN' hot vette! ;) |
HEHE Yeah; now I gotta finish the interior et al; so I can drive it OUT of my garage while the headers cure; I almost died...
|
smokin !
|
Still; the high idle is nasty!!! I love it.
|
is it going to be quicker than your 8 do you think ?
|
Hard to say... the torque will definitely be there; but over a long straight I should do ok against it. Obviously; suspension is a big advantage to me in any kind of road course.
Then again it will end up weighing less than mine; may have to get a video of 1/4 mile run...have to sail them to Maui to do it though. |

There is a 1/4 mile strip on Maui... the track here might be open by the Spring - so then we can do head to head and time trials....

http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3099/...075260e0_o.jpg http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3253/...8a310963_o.jpg We still have some fiberglass and fitment to do... there is a lot more fabrication that we had hoped for. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3205/...bf6a9834_o.jpg |
We are also gonna shim the carb up an inch; I think it will look mo' betta!
|
thats gonna look pretty sick!
|
BTW - we are converting the interior to black; so the door panels, trim etc; are slowly getting swapped out in place of new Black ones.
|
so sexy
|
That project is looking great!!!!! Keep up the great work!!!!!!!
|
Should have made the body out of 100% carbon fiber.. Imagine how light it would be :P
Looks amazing though, I can't wait to see the end result. Best of luck! (not that you need it) |
HAHA CF - that might have blown our budget.
I am actually really happy with the weight of the fiberglass pieces it has - not too shabby. |
I can't believe no one ever responded to the "OH SHIIIIIIIIII*************!!!!!" face!
So what's new with the Vette? We demand updates... |
We have gone underground for a few weeks......
We will update soon. :D Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh we are hunting wabbits. |
Fritos FTW!
|
go vette!
Looking good kane... (car not oh shiii..face) |
:suspect:
|
It is at QA........once we get the sign off - maybe I'll share some stuff...
|
did you guys blow this thing up or what?!
|
nice ride, cant wait to see the final result
|
the only vette i like.
im also eager to see the end product. |
that hood looks badass!
|
Eh........ what happened was - we made a lot of torque.... a LOT.
So mcuh that we cracked the frame rail on the passenger side while doing a few um... traction tests. Soooooo - it is going to be a bit more time until it is ready. We found a shop that can repair it and weld in some tubular supports. It did shake all the walls in the shop though.... evil motor. |
video or it never happened
|
I'll get pics.
|
oh i didnt even notice the hood nice.
|
agreed
|
ouch. hope you get it fixed. sounds lie an awesome build.
