Well it has been a slow process. The fresh 305 is in, the T5 was torn down and found to be in great shape, then reinstalled with a new balanced flywheel and a eClutch sourced clutch, works on the S10 ...

This is my NASA CMC car, picked up as a old A sedan on Racing Junk for $650, full cage, SCCA logbook, fuel cell, fire suppression, lots a stuff, no offside quarter, no rear end, kirkey seat. I should be able to have her ready for a stupidly inexpensive $8K not cutting any corners but not including the spec tires. Added 9 bolt rear, control arms and panhard, WC T5 and more. Quarter panel has been replaced. Hopefully have it running reliable in time to compete later this season in CMC1. Rear GC 200lb springs have arrived. I have started working out my brakes as per advice given by Robert Denton and his group from IL who have run in this class for 10 years, much thanks Bob. Front brakes are a combination of 98+ Camaro rotors and calipers, 1LE hubs and bearings with some machining to make it all work. Bob went over my transmission and found it to be in great shape, he is also building my engine using his experience to combine a suitable package.

Engine has been built and is ready to go in, found I had the wrong flywheel, got to pick one up. Added 98+ brake master cylinder and had the 1LE hubs turned to take 98+ rotors.
