Re: 620 KC project

Holy Cow Batman, it's been a year since I updated on here - far more regular postings on Ratsun. Arm surgery was followed quickly by (another) hip surgery and I attest that everything went well including recovery. Since that last posting, I have honestly not managed to get much more done on the proj...

Excellent! Did you also get F/R weights for bias?

Re: Project 635 - 300HP RWD 620

this truck just barks, instantly spins the tires, and launches. I've never had a car this raw/fast before... man is it fun!!!

Now THAT is a statement! :D

I like how it's looking, the track width is excellent!

Re: Project 635 - 300HP RWD 620

Yes Edmonton to Halifax was a long haul, took 4 very long days + 1/2 a day. Sun disappeared the moment I crossed into NS and was beset with fog & rain, so didn't get to really see anything :(

Man that is looking good. If only I had a moment in person, I'm driving to Halifax tomorrow but under a deadline. I definitely need the headliner mounting sequence... one day in the future...

Re: Project 635 - 300HP RWD 620

I'll likely try the polished-metal/clearcoat option one rainy day. I recently saw a YT video where a guy tried several "chrome" products (hood ornaments I recall) and found the best product was a metallic nail polish type product. Great flow out and far more realistic. I hadn't thought abo...

Re: Project 635 - 300HP RWD 620

This electric-powered dash vent is still under development but progressing nicely. That looks pretty good, have you considered a screen over the inlet to keep out leaves & other debris? I mounted a screen on the air intake for my heater assembly for that reason, I might end up removing it as I a...

BTW, I will also be needing to get a new windshield so let me know where you find one. If you weren't across the country we could maybe get a discount on 2!

Re: Project 635 - 300HP RWD 620

Good idea on operating the vents, I look forward to how that works. As my build no longer uses the original lighting or wiper switches, I mounted my USB port into the hole for the wiper switch, but having one in the glove box makes good sense. I'll be putting a light in my glove box with a door cont...

Re: Blue 510 Vintage Racer

there were some SERIOUS crashes with serious carnage Auto racing of many types is a contact sport, but truly there are limits. Boneheads need not apply. I haven't seen the Blue since before that race but hopeful it survived such that the winter will have Byron getting it back into track condition. I...

Re: Project 635 - 300HP RWD 620

Wow, those gates are incredibly close to each other. I think I'd blow just a few shifts trying to hit them during "spirited" driving, er like there's some other way?... The throw looks decent though. I might have suggested this before, but I think this forum really doesn't give you the exp...

Re: Project 635 - 300HP RWD 620

The vent ducts are these: thumbnail_IMG_9736.jpg thumbnail_IMG_9737.jpg thumbnail_IMG_9739.jpg thumbnail_IMG_9740.jpg I'm considering altering how to operate them so I can open/close the passenger side more easily from the drivers seat. I had to modify my wiper mount and forgot to check clearance, t...

Re: Project 635 - 300HP RWD 620

Those tubes definately don't look correct, more like the defroster duct connectors but those have a 90 degree at the heater box. 620 heater.jpg IMG_8154.jpg I'll have a look at my ducts tomorrow and take some pics for you to reference. As I recall, the ducts are shaped in a loose "U", that...
