I never transferred my donor title to my name but I brought the title signed over to me and the paperwork showing that I was the owner of the car and title to the title and registration process. That worked for Houston back in early 2022

After a 1 hour drive with my added supercharger, I have logged a peak 195 degrees with no cooler. As I am moving closer to summer temps, I am looking to add a small cooler to stay closer to the 170 degree range that we should see with a integral cooler in the radiator setup. This is still well...

You have the equipment to weld stainless?....Hmmmm A good friend I may have... ;)

I always look at the difference between my ambient air temp and my IAT2 to check for heat soak, but I would think that instead of a ratio to use a delta difference between the two. More like HVAC temp readings and looking for a 20-30 degree rise from ambient as ok...or not. Joe

I did the same way as you to take the MAF IAT and connect the wiring to the on manifold IAT2 location as the more critical. Not that I have tried, but could you put the ambient temp sensor in the airstream to scan and log the IAT temps? Or wire the MAF temp to the ambient sensor wiring? Joe

As for the air filter routing, here is how it worked best for me. Make sure that the filter is at the end of the aluminum pipe. if the filter is installed too far into the pipe, it also messes up the sensor. For the PCV hose, I got some 3/8" hose and inserted into a small length of the...

Could it be that without the cables holding the parking brake mechanism back, that every time you brake, you start engaging the self adjusting mechanism ratcheting the pads closer and closer to the rotor until they can't back off enough for clearance. Put the whole system together as designed...

Since you are twisting the gage between sides, be sure to have to calibrated to the floor slope or add/subtract it as needed

In theory, you don't even need the EVAP as Texas allows 1 monitor to not be ready. In the 3 years of driving my goblin, I have yet to have it check the EVAP system. You may need to have the sensors hooked up or spoofed, but the actual canister and routing should not be needed. You do need the...

This mod should make you faster:

It does not look like a stress crack to me but more like a manufacturing joint as it looks like a weld root pass that has been ground smooth. The fact that it runs perpendicular to the hollow section and not to a stress direction would also support this. Where you are most susceptible would be...

I don't think this is your problem but found that for the first time driving on new pads and rotors, I had very little braking force until the pads were bedded. For the rears you can drive a bit with the parking brake handle pulled up to create some drag and put some heat cycles into the rear...

Careful!. Lotus seven and offroad are not mutually exclusive.

Skip ahead to 23:40 for the good stuff. Not my video but I think counts. Next up: Goblin next to wild flowers! Joe

Polish them but I would recommend replacing the rubber rear bushings with metal ones from Moog or OTTP

If you are popping fuses across multiple ECMs and BCMs, it is not the computer but the wiring. I would pull off all the connectors off the computers and meter the pins to ground to determine which ones are grounding out and those that do, make sure they are only authorized grounds. Be careful...

At the very bottom of my post long ago with similar issues: https://dfkitcar.com/forum/index.php?threads/joebobs-build-log-ss-na-auto-extended-city-frame-270.2259/post-66748 Short answer was it was not the throttle pedal nor the TB but the connector loose pins or the wires that you have to...

That is a different question between auto and manual. My understanding is that all Manual frames are the same. For automatic transmission, you have to see if the legacy clutch mounting bracket is retained or not. If you have the clutch bracket, then it should work between SS and non SS...

What about grinding the ends on the spacer bosses to pull the bracket closer to the transmission and more align the mounting hole?
