Another RSR Clone Project Update - 11

I've been making slow but steady progress since my last update and figured it was time to post another one. Since my last post, I've installed all the windows, seats, oil cooling system and have completed most of the engine rebuild. Here's some photos.

Oil Cooling
The photos show the RSR panel indent before the cooler installation and then the Setrab 150 cooler purchased from Elephant Racing. I routed the Aeroquip hoses through the front fender panel as was done on the original RSR. The hard lines were purchased from GAD in Atlanta used as was the thermostat. Elephant supplied the thermo to tank and thermo to engine lines. The tank was lenghtened and baffled by Fabcar,






The car itself is mostly complete. Only the fuel pump and rear deck grill need to be installed.




The engine long block is complete. Recall it's a twin plug, 3.0 SC with RSR P&C's from Andial, DC-60 cam from Camgrinder, RSR headers that will use a ralley style muffler and PMO carbs. The assembly measurements gave 10.5:1 CR just where I had targeted the engine.






I'm hoping to have the car running sometime during August.
