Update!

They pulled the transmission cross member out of the car to remove the mount, Along with all this they also got the exhaust tips tacked on to get an idea of how everything will look. They also fabricated the dump tubes and got once side completed and I must say this looks stunning if I say so myself. The way the tubes just interlace together is just indescribable.

I hope the billet parts come in this week so the rest of the puzzle is here and ready for the final stages of this build. Once everything is complete and put together I can then send everything out for polishing and ceramic coating.

Those dump pipes merging together is sex. Great work.

Waiting….

Amazing! Is one key word that describes everything in this picture. The new transmission mount that was cut out has been tacked into place with new metal. I’m truly excited and happy how everything is turning out. The heading may seem deceiving, but I’m truly playing a waiting game with the billet parts. I hope they come in by Friday and then these guys can start finish welding.

The next move is a big deciding factor for me as I’m stuck in between a rock and a hard place. Let’s just say airbox cooler….

I'm pretty sure that's because Ford took a loss on every one built to keep it that way. A company like Ford can afford to do that with a Halo car, smaller exotic firms cannot.

BILLET!!

Finally got the billet brackets in, which look amazing! I’m glad were past this stage now and moving forward now the up pipes, exhaust and dumps can all be welded. I still haven’t decided what I plan to do beyond this point….if I should do a water to air setup or not…it’s a really hard choice, but I know I have to make up my mind soon as things progress.

Missing Updates?

Well I got something! The car has sort of been pushed to the side with me as I have been super busy with business and other things in life, but I think it's time I get back into it and start making the push. Centerline has been good to me and have been keeping my car safe on the hoist while I have been doing my thing. I'm glad that this hasn’t been an issue for them as they really do good work and I wouldn't want to take my car anywhere else.









Pipes are a bit off as the tape came apart and since it was about to come off to be tacked together, but I’m sure you guys get the point here! Clearance is a huge issue and thats why the pie cuts had to be used!
