I had second thoughts on the digi dash and decided to go with analog gauges instead

Well that takes us to where I am today. I recently restarted the motor-nice to hear it run again. It was dyno tuned at Indy-Speed in Vancouver some years back. Today, it runs great till about 4500 rpm then starts to sputter. I am not good at this stuff and I tracked down the tuner. Good news is that he can remote tune it! I have to get a PC laptop and set that up-hopefully soon. Originally the motor registered 267 hp at the wheels.

Awesome power to weight ratio.. great project. Fairly getting stuck in..
Bravo..

I have recently just got back to the car. I found a coolant leak and had to order a new water pump and the pipe from the thermostat housing to the head. I mounted the body onto the frame and am getting busy fitting some items for the (hopefully) last time. Here are some pictures.
