Another Short Vid Of My 3.8 RSR Slide Valve
We have it running fat until we can get it on the dyno and tune it properly. This is on 91. More to come. I also included a picture of the dash view..

Should have it's first drive today once the setup is dialed in. We put new JRZ coilovers on, and it must be corner balanced, ride height set, etc. I will post up some more info tonight, it's coming together nicely. John

The exhaust starts with Scar-go 1.75" headers, then my builder Colin Cantrell fab'd up the 2.5" 304 stainless using cut down Burns muffs. I am thrilled with the result. Here's a picture since that's worth 1000 words or so....

And here she is on the corner scales getting dialed in for the road test. She's a lightweight at 2032 pounds! Couple more things to add, but not much...Hoosier R6's to help stick her to the road...

This has to be one of my new favorite pelicanite cars. It reminds me of the Singer 911.

We see a lot of nice cars here. This is one of the all time best. I am intensely envious. Under 2100 lbs with slide valve 3.8 in an early RSR body that's painted battleship grey (I mean, Stone Grey). This is the perfect car.

Here's another shot of the pipe work with the valence removed for the folks that have asked about the exhaust.
