I don't have any pics of the belly pan/drip pan on my computer. The k-frame is mine...custom built for the strut front. I did it before there were many other options out there. I think it is one of the things that makes my car as light as it is.

It is a fabricated strut that takes standard Monroe strut cartridges and a 12" coil over spring. If I had it to do again, I would just use a double adjustable race strut. Funds were tight when I did it and it works great and is a dream at 150+. Just alot of work to get everything right. They are made from moly tubing and laser cut plate with aluminum adjuster tubes.

Goal is for it to stay together so I can run the piss out of it and pick up the pace to be able to go 5.80 in the heat (so 5.65 to 5.70 in good air). Also, want my 8 second time slip.

Push rod is very close to port wall. Had to grind away just a little epoxy to gain some clearance. Anyone see anything wrong with this picture? Had to move the upper pulley 6 teeth to get the cam degreed in. Why can they get it right on a $80 timing chain, but can't get it right with a $1300 belt drive?
