Can tell your having fun with it! Some nice parts you've got too. I've still gotta get my oil cooler connected up.

So are you turbo-ing it or is it already turbo?

Just a thought, if you are putting both oil temp and press. guages in, i'm guessing you have one short fat sensor for the oil press. and a thin one for the temp? They might not both fit at the same time in the plate due to the pressure sensor's body sitting where the temp sensor needs to be, that's what I've found. I've bought some 45 degree 1/8 NPT elbows so i can move the press. sensor one off to one side so they both fit. I had to get a pack of 5 and only need one or two so if you need one give me a shout :)

I'd missed this! Paint really isn't my cup of tea, but looks like some proper effort and real life custom fabrication being done. Will keep an eye.

On the other hand, the title promises some form of snailing device and as yet... no pictures have delivered!

Yet again I'm stunned with the effort going into this car! Sort the paint and make it look at least a little bit pretty, all the work more than deserves it! Seems silly to not let decent metal into the arches there, even if you put something over the top?
