It's nice to see a well used ITR.

 

but the r is beaten to death

battle scares

 

So Warren, I take it you got the frame rails back to spec?

 

Yeah. It's back in spec.

Oh, and in other news. The car is even faster now. I'm borrowing a tranny with a 4.785 FD, put in an aluminum flywheel, and I'm running a 6 puck Action clutch, which is actually super smooth. No chatter, but the engagement point is very high.

Good to see it finally happening!

 

Good to see the car with "speed dimples" ready to run again.

 

Nice alignment tools!

cool, #237 lives again!
... and #236 sits motorless ...

 

 

Speed wrinkles own.

 

Good to hear Warren

Marc ---> who saw it get towed away

 

Is there any benefit to have a high engagement point?

CS

 

I think you should send your car to that guy that restored his burnt R.

can you say Jenny Jones makeover? jk.

 

The only advantage that I could think of is if it was high enough so that you could safely put a clutch stop underneath the pedal/clutch, effectively shortening the clutch. However, without mocking it up, you cannot safely put in a clutch stop and know that the clutch is fully disengaged.

Ed - I think that' syour block on the floor doubling as part of the DIY alignment rack.

 

What happened to it, in the first place?

 

That is a long story, so how about you settle for what happened this time?
