Mr. G. Brettin's Slow Motion Leg Hump

gbrettin · 09-03-2021, 01:52 PM

Mounted my Lokar dipstick to a factory bolt. For some reason my cable wouldn't go back in after I gave a quick test of pulling it out. It sounded like it was banging on the transmission... That's because it was. Lokar forgot to put a PTFE O ring inside the tube so I had to take out the dipstick from the transmission and then send the lower part back to them. At least the transmission did not have fluid.

I put the front bumper back on to get an idea how many pies I will need for that. Looks like a few like a like 4 sets of 90's to make it snake out (2 per side) and a couple 45 deg mandrel bends. I'm going to try avoiding snake zilla v2.

A 3.5" custom made drive shaft has been ordered for the car today. It comes with the pinon flange so I should be able to bolt it right up. That is... after I modify the transmission mount.
