The motor was done in the late 80s or maybe 1990 by a place called Kraftwerk in Texas. We don't have any major tools and have barely enough garage space for it.
I do understand all that goes on with it and I did decide to go with the Rebel Racing stuff. I'm going to install the rear bushings this summer with Clint. Also I am going to have to pick up some skills like machining and welding to build my suspension designs for senior project on the FSAE car. I have the resources available here at Cal Poly SLO.
Machining and welding is mostly what I was talking about. I can turn wrenches and stuff like that. I've done basic woodwork. I have even been introduced to composites.
