Kevin Patten Posted July 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2015 Got a call today that the front fascia is painted - now I just have to pick it up and cut holes in it for the tow hook and Agent47 brake duct pieces. Cutting things real close here for the Shelby Nationals since I have even more than that on my plate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cutting things real close here for the Shelby Nationals since I have even more than that on my plate. Just make sure you get the proper stickers applied. That's the most important thing. The performance stuff is somewhat insignificant ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Patten Posted July 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 New Brembo club racing front brakes installed - SUPER NICE - way better than the Stop Tech ones which were required by the SMG rules. PURE BEEF!!! Unfortunately found a leaking right rear caliper that will need replacing (leak @ the piston seal) before the next outing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about some of tow hook and cutting of bumper, think I know someone that'll be doing the same soon New Brembo club racing front brakes installed - SUPER NICE - way better than the Stop Tech ones which were required by the SMG rules.

I might know where I can find a spare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Patten Posted July 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 I did - looks good Chris - but is it fast? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmcmotorworks Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 I did - looks good Chris - but is it fast? I think so. I haven't taken it over 40 mph, but it feels like it could still go faster. It has a fairly good sized motor and some screw blower thing on top that's supposed to shove more air in with more gas. It's supposed to give it a little more power if you mash the pedal all the way down. I'll have to try it out and let you know ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Patten Posted July 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Got the stock SGT front fascia back from the painter and assembled it today. I think that it's going to make it back on the car (07SGT4755) in time for the Shelby Nationals. Tomorrow headed up to Sonoma Raceway where it's suppose to be over 100 degrees!

Kevin Patten Posted July 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 Put the front fascia on this evening - close but some points are off - the brake ducting boxes hit the back of the Agent47 lower grille ducting inlets - so I'll need to get it up in the air and make adjustments plus mount the rear brackets for the splitter.

Kevin Patten Posted August 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 Getting ready for NORCAL SAAC Mini-Nats/Team Shelby Nationals - and laying out some $$$ for the future motor build - ordered the FRPP throttle body, FRPP intake manifold, FRPP high flow CNC cylinder heads, and the FRPP Hot Rod cams!

Kevin Patten Posted August 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2015 Back from the Shelby Nationals/Mini Nats - had a blast on the track but ended up dropping a cylinder in the motor on Saturday. Lots of fun and hung out with a great bunch of Team Shelby members at the track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Patten Posted August 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 Thanks Scott for posting the correct link - did you like the shot of 07SGT4755 up on 2 wheels? It did pretty well against those high horsepower cars (only has 315 RWHP). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
