Short term, maybe radiant mats that you could use to at least have a place to stand/lie on when you're working in one area? |
It doesn't bother me enough to do something about it

Very cool. (thread, not temps)

Wow. Impressive.
I’ve got to think that car with >500hp will be formidable. And probably still get better fuel economy than the stock motor. :lol: |
I think it will compete very favorably with the current class leaders which include a very well prepared and driven turbocharged 240SX, several Evos and STis (which have to run much heavier than rear wheel drive cars) and various E36 BMWs. Even with the piston engine it should have a very low center of gravity, much better suspension geometry than any of them and a much stiffer chassis. Even if I'm off by 200lbs on my weight estimate (I don't think I am) then I'll at worst be on even ground with the BMWs and the 240.
A local salvage yard has a complete 2.5L engine for $300, so I'm planning to head there on Friday (my day off every two weeks) and snag it. |
I'm just glad that engine hoist had at least one more pull in it. Something about using a HF tool to hold up hundreds of pounds chest high just gives me the hebejebes.

I'm planning to use a Borg Warner EFR7163 turbo running about 21lbs of boost peak.
