The car appears to have turned out really nicely John. I'm sorry to see that you're not planning on running it.  :cry: :cry:

I've watched this car go together over the past couple of years. The engineering and construction are first class. The engine a beast- 850+. Would be a shame to  subject it to the salt unless you were willing to take every part from every other part after to clean it but would be a worse shame to not have it run. John has said he has built it as a pavement LSR and I surely hope it gets there and I could see it run. Someone step up!!

For anyone looking for an engine, this motor can now be sold separately as an excellent deal. 

Among its numerous premium features, importantly, it has new Hendrick valve springs.

GH.  You posted many photos of your car and they were most helpful during my build, same for Hooley and Charles's construction threads - tnxs.  There a good side, someone could get a nice little car, it was fun, and I learned many lessons.  John.
