    Oil pan recommendations?

    An L76 pan measured from the block rail to the bottom of the pan is right at 6 1/2", the drain plug boss adds another 1/2" or so. It holds 8qts. Might be enough room for the slope of your skid plate, might have to cut out a section in the skid plate for the drain plug boss, even space it down a...

    SXS Weld Porn or Weld Horror?

    I don't know about any of you folks but I get so bored looking at the stacked MIG welds. If you are going to MIG it, just MIG it. If you want the stacked look use a TIG and be done with it. If anyone thinks a robotic weld has to be crappy, think again. Apparently the Germans at Porsche have it...

    The Transaxle Thread

    Speaking of TO bearings, I had to pull my engine out at the last minute at New Years to fix a hydraulic leak at the shaft mounted Albins actuator on my HV24. That sumbitch left a puddle on the ground in the garage just out of the blue one day. I was planning on ordering one of the $450 actuators...

    KLCs up and coming new 4 seater

    Our good friend Eric Emler/E2 Ironworks is the one who is fabricating this beauty.     We started off with the idea we were going to replicate the frame we had already, only in 4130. Then over many late nights of discussions for what seemed like a couple of years we decided to build from...

    KLCs up and coming new 4 seater

    I dug up some of the build photos.  I tried to keep them in order but they still posted out of order, oh well.    If any of you have experience welding a chassis together you’ll know about moving metal. Even with bolting it to the fixture table this chit moves when you weld it. It’s not easy...

    KLCs up and coming new 4 seater

    Just some photos of the group we roll with. Maybe you've seen us at Gordons? Ok back to the build. Is there something you see that very few cars have these days? You got it, DOORS! We were tired of crawling into and falling out of the car. Decided to build it with them from the get go instead...

    KLCs up and coming new 4 seater

    Just a few pics of what I'm having built for us. It will eventually encompass 350' of 1 3/4 x .120 4130, so needless to say it will be a heavy bitch! We're doing this primarily in the interest of safety, and to make a few changes to our current frame. We dune with a couple of very nice cars, a...

    WTB 4 funco Jettrim bucket seats

    They're just around the corner from AZ Transaxle, they've got a lot of sample seats in their showroom. The owner Herbie is a good guy. I had to give Foddrills the order though, Triple X will not deal directly with the public.  I don't have ours mounted in the new car yet, but they looked good...

    LS3 - Picking Alternator Mount and Tensioner

    What you have posted is the reason I don't contribute here much anymore, I try to be positive and post something that may be helpful and there's always someone who posts right up behind me and says no that's not how to do it, or that will never work, or in this case making a mockery of someone's...

    LS3 - Picking Alternator Mount and Tensioner

    You will first need to determine what crankshaft pulley your engine will use, this will establish the positioning of all the accessories. You will need to know if you are going to use a p/s pump or not, an idler will need to be installed in it's place if you will use electric steering. The...
