Hans Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 I had a rattle right behind my drivers seat and it turned out to be the C&L metal air tube hitting the shock tower, made an adjustment of tube and added some rubber that the tube would hit and problem solved, it drove me nuts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2010KonaBlueGT Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 I had a rattle right behind my drivers seat and it turned out to be the C&L metal air tube...<SNIP> Pardon my ignorance, but what is a "C&L metal air tube"??? I know quite a bit about cars and that one escapes me. Phill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmcmotorworks Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 I've used t-shirts as a dampener and stickers as a securing device to eliminate some of my rattles. The ones seem to work the best ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Patten Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Anyone hear anything about this car? Is it still in the build shop or the paint shop? Thought that I should rattle this thread before the Shelby Nationals comes up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
08KR525 Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 I've been following this build from the beginning. I was afraid to ask about it since it seems like the shop is taking more than their sweet time with it and I didn't want to rub salt in the OP's wounds. Hopefully the cars finished and he just hadn't had time to post because he's too busy driving it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OsirisGT500 Posted July 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Was on a trip, just got back yesterday. Helped a friend pick up his 1st car from his parents home in Detroit. Long trip, towed it home. Before I left he said end of next month but I fear it's just more empty promises. I'm gonna go up sometime this week and check up on things.

Kevin Patten Posted August 27, 2015 Report Share Posted August 27, 2015 Bring it up to Sonoma Raceway and either talk to Filip @ Cortex Racing , Darrell Anderson @ AV8, or Kertz Fabrication. PM me if you need contact information - the PWC group is going to be @ Sonoma Raceway this weekend running with the IndyCar Series Races. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OsirisGT500 Posted August 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2015 I got a very uninformed very not official quote from Dean Martin. He's a little farther away even though he's at Cortex right now. I'll call up there in a few after I get a WTF talk in again with where the car is.

OsirisGT500 Posted September 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 Well some progress... lets see if it keeps up. I cut some of the engine harness up due to duplicate plugs because of the stock coyote engine harness and the ford racing controls pack. Made some decisions where the oil accumulator and trans radiator and power steering radiator will go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OsirisGT500 Posted September 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 More stuff mounted. Oil filter, steering cooling rad, oil cooling rad, trans cooling rad, accusump. Got the diff cooling rad's figured out, just need a new tap and some mounting tabs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OsirisGT500 Posted February 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 Still slow as all hell. I lost a girlfriend over the depression of not having my car for 2.5 years. My depression seems to have motivated him a bit but he still takes care of 5 or 6 AI cars too soooo usual stuff. Fuel is plumbed, oil is plumbed. Need wiring and brake plumbing.

Kevin Patten Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 Thanks for the update! Things will work out - I'm upgrading my car including the motor (which I can't afford right now) so I'm learning patience. What's gotten done so far on your car looks good so stay with it.

OsirisGT500 Posted March 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2016 The work is way better than any of the cars I have seen him service. The price left to pay is a fraction of what I have seen people charge for the work that is left. Supposedly Tony Rivera who races in PWC will be finishing the car soon. He works at the shop now. I'm heading back up tomorrow to check on stuff. I am heading with them to COTA to help out this weekend. At least that should be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
