Some more pictures from Sunday-Funday
Decided to try something different and made coolant overflow tank out if VOSS bottle, came out pretty clean, it will be covered in aluminum enclosure with rubber layer in between. We will see how it all works out

I apologize for not keeping up with updates, here's small update on CHLTRTL tune and dyno
Ran into couple issue with tire fitment, every time I turn left the tire would touch part of the frame and cut the pieces of rubber out, so had to modify the frame a bit. Welds are shitty but it holds well and with purpose.
Also wheel wells had sharp edge which also would scrape on front tires, eliminated….
before
And after
Threw in 4 wastegate springs equivalent to 20psi, let me tell you, it was not fun trying to screw the lid back on haha
Screwed in all oil pressure and oil temp sensors, the weird thing to me is that car is built in united states but the thread are BSPT :/ and all the sensor threads are NPT, like WHAT THE HELL, but it all worked out in the end, tapped oil pressure sensor with 1/8npt which is one thread off from 1/8bspt, put rtv, no leaks so far. Got new fitting 3/4bpst mail to 1/8npt female, teflon tape, no leaks. Me like it. Everything works as it should.
April 3rd, Sunday, was a great day. Was finally able to tune and dyno the car
It was adventure to get the car to the shop. First off all it took as about 40 minutes just to load the car on tow truck, just because driver didn’t know what the hell he was doing lol
Unload was less than 5 minutes.
But that is just half of the story.
We get to the shop and mustang dyno is not in the ground but on top of the ground and the space between the ramp and the wall exactly 1 car length, explain that. It took us another 30-60 minutes just to get the car over the rollers and onto the dyno.
After everything was prepped and in place Beau aka BBR Tuning got to do his magic
Ran into couple small issues, nothing major, gapped spark plugs at 15,
As Beau began to dyno the car clutch started slipping and would not hold at higher speeds, so we were able only to get 304HP with 335TRQ on first pull, and then 308HP with 338TRQ. Not bad for shitty clutch.

The only changes I would do would be to take a couple inches off the end of the duck-tale. Otherwise you're killing it.

Rad wing work, is it strong? It looks kind of thin but I can't really tell.
