LS1 Drift Build 'Nuff Said'

[Miroteknik]

what fans are you going to use? i have to do a similar custom shroud/fan setup and Ron Davis radiators quoted me $365 for a shroud and a 16" fan. the Ron Davis guys told me "slim-fans" won't be able to keep the v8 cool, and thats what i was going to use to start with...

OMG, this is literally the best thing I have ever read in my entire life!, you sir have a magnificent taste in parts and alcohol!

[Rinku-Bitch]

Why is this still up, it's been a whole 15 minutes.

I know it's not exactly hard to find but I love Sierra Nevada's Pale Ale. They're celebration fresh hop ale is the tits as well.

How and why did I just now saw this thread?

read every page from the beginning.

good motivation right there!

Keep it up.

and not enough pictures of the wood shift knob and the handle. I am serious. those things are mean looking! [ever thought about filling in the notches with clear resin of some sort? I would **** for you to have the notched out parts "snap off" when handling them roughly while driving]

^^ Thanks bro for the kind words.. Yeah a the beginning I was thinking about just doing some type of wood treatment in the openings but changed my mind..



But for now here is what I have been working on.. Its a Housing for my STACk 8130 gauge.. It will mount in here with buttons mounted bellow it and then wrapped in black suede cause I am also getting my dash wrapped in suede. Then it will mount in front where the old cluster was..



Started with a sheet of Foam...



Getting it fitted...



Got it sitting nice and flush...



Got it wall wrapped up now it is ready for Wax, and some glassing.. Going to be fun..




Also have some sexy parts coming so will update once I pick up my transmission from Houston

So a little progress on the Stack housings and my Fan Shroud that Blake is making..



Started by cutting the Fiber glass fabric needed for the mold.. Then it was go time to glass..



After the glassing session I removed the foam molding and BAM!!! you have your self a nice fiber glass Stack housing.. Still have to do a ton of sanding to make it look nice, then add some bondo and sand a ton more again. But you get the idea..



Blake has been working hard on his build as well as doing my fan shroud and other goodies I have coming.. So thanks again buddy. Here is his build thread.http://www.stanceworks.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=18371



I am using two Spal 12" thin fans.. do to my space that is what I decided to run..



Holes cut



Love it, and can't wait to mount it up.. Most likely paint it black too...



Also got a special delivery from Falken tires for my 19 DPEs.. Thanks to Mark at Fatlace for the tires and Jojo at DPE for the wheels.. Much more to come from DPE so stay tune..

[RolledAndPulledG]

yeah buddy!!!! I cant wait to see your wheels mounted and the amount of poke with zero camber on a 19x13...

[Brian.]

Just read all 19 pages.

Awesome build! I laughed out loud when I saw you running such wide wheels up front. This thing looks sexy! Show quality. I'm in for pictures of this thing laying down some wide ass tire marks!

[Royal_T]

^^^ Thanks for the kind words.. Yeah the 19x11 0 is just really to ride around in or for show/marketing..
My drift spears will be 18x9.5 -22

[Hatech]

I am sure I will be repeating myself but man, every damn update.....Killing it.

I have wanted to delve into fibreglass/composites before. Cant wait to see it wrapped.

[Royal_T]

^^ Thanks bro, I got some really good updates to come so stay tune.

Yeah Fiberglass is cool to work with, in terms as making cool stuff.. But I do **** sanding and there is a lot of it when it comes to things like this.. Thank good I am not painting it and just wrapping cause it would have to be 10 times better.

[Royal_T]

bump bump.. I should have a nice update for you guys come this week..

[RolledAndPulledG]

YESS!!! Wanna see pics of the beast mounted in the bay! And some pics of your bitchin Sikky shifter
