Re: custom backhalf C4 IRS and Front suspension

I had to go back & re-read for the 'why' & a 2:1 ratio is a good reason...... It's wild looking for sure. Any concerns about the exhaust heat compromising the ShockWaves?

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

The exhaust system wont be an issue. The headers are going to be super tight and jet coated and I'm going to build a heat shield for the bag.

Stupid Sick Skills Jr. It's a joy to see your work, can't even imagine what it's like in person. Wish I was closer, I'd be bringing my paycheck in hand.

Re: custom backhalf C4 IRS and Front suspension

Glad to see you are still around! So is the EMT computer stuff now in the past for a full time play job? I like the front canti set up but I am still on the fence on the engine hoop at this point.

Re: custom backhalf C4 IRS and Front suspension

Slowly working on this along with other customer rides....but this is the bed getting ready to mock-up the raised floor and what not...

Oh, and that might end up being the color combo as well on the fender...a corvette blue and the pearl white...
