SupraHuman Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 It's almost there, start up in May, just finishing the fuel system as Martin has to build it from scratch with the new swirl pot/Weldon set-up. Thanks dude, hows your's coming along? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dude Posted April 17, 2011 Author Share Posted April 17, 2011 None of this would be possible without the help of everyone at AFR, Matt and Luke pulled out all the stops to get a loom made and the Dash2 in the car and communicating in a couple of days!! Tommy and The Bear for helping with assembly and fabrication, this car was in bits with nothing finished just last week. Finally thanks to Ryan and Charlie at SRR for input and help on the ecu side of things. I will still be amazed if it runs in anger at the Easter Thunderball as there are always teething troubles.

Yeah those fuel systems can get very expensive and time consuming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
