V1 Dre city Goblin build - 06 LS Donor

[Dre]

Got a little more work done today.
Mounted the radiator and connected tubes. Attached the coilovers and fuel tank.

Looks like your uprights are assembled backwards. I did the exact same thing...

Thanks for spotting that

I think everyone that has the L shaped bracket has made that same mistake. It goes on backwards from the milled piece in the videos.

Ohh. Makes sense

 

[IDRVSLO]

Making note of this.

Am i supposed to remove the yellow plastic pieces and put them on the new shifter cables?

 

[Dre]

Im guessing it's ok to cut this plug off the engine harness since im using the blue wire from it for the fan.

 

[Dre]

The last photo i sent is the fan plug i believe. Am i able to trace the wires and remove them completely

No, there should be new rod ends in your hardware.

Correct. you can remove it as you only need the one wire in the fuse box.

 

[Dre]

I don't think I saw them... maybe I need to look again.

This bad boy pictured here... is there something in the kit that routes this from the transmission to the clutch pedal?

You should have a stainless steel line for the clutch. Make sure you get the o-rings off that black piece and put them on the ends of the stainless steel line or you’ll have a hell of a mess to clean up when you start bleeding that line...

 

[IDRVSLO]

Thx James, was wondering this too.

 

[Dre]

Thanks Jamesm, one more question (for now). The rubber tube in the second image, where does that route to?

 

[IDRVSLO]

Should be the intake manifold.

I believe that the "bad boy" is the clutch master cylinder and the pictures seem to show the steel line connected to the spot on the clutch linkage where it was attached. Where does the "bad boy" go in the goblin?

That hose goes to the bake reservoir.

To clarify, the part pictured in the message from 12:47 on 8/22 is eliminated? Or is moved? On the stock car it is connected where the hard line connects on the goblin.
