[QUOTE="SlowSVT, post: 15732279, member: 20202"] Troy Once I saw that nitrous bottle sitting in the trunk I knew I was too late! LOL I would say your 2-3 build cycles behind Malcolm but your getting there as long as you keep breaking stuff ........ probably the 2 best built Terminators on the planet behind mine! .......... *sigh* I'm coming out of retirement and starting to get back to work on Cobra. A topic you may be interested in was the aluminum oil pan I started fabbing which is basically an aluminum Canton road race pan on steroids! It's finished.......well, sort of. I made one mistake at the 11th hour leaving it with the welder to run a small bead along the front and rear edge of the flange which drooped a little from the heat so I had less material to remove when I plane the flange flat. Turns out the guy went way overboard with the amount of weld done all at once which twisted the pan by a degree or two to the point you will never get the twist out. I'm fabbing a new flange and going to mill the old one out, cut the pan in 1/2 and re-level both ends and weld it all back straight. What a f#&k*@g odyssey :( [/QUOTE]
