Well i just put the tools away on the project (been going at it for over 12 hours today, if only i got paid for this!)
Started out by finishing up my battery box relocation safety kit item...





Then as i am finishing that ups shows up with a box full of goodies! (but i was unaware that a bunch of things i had ordered were on backorder )


So i replaced the oil pic up on the engine (which had been bent slightly in the accident.



Then decided that my engine stand looked tiered/like it was about to brake so i made a custom wooden craddle (using my brand new engine mounts) to attach the k member to the engine and rest it in the craddle




after that my welder bud came over, and we ended up finishing 99% of the cage!






and a fun pic i like!

 

looking good. why dont you slide the kmember and the engine into the car? lol

you painting the cage body color?

 

+1, didnt you just get the engine bay painted? whats the hold up?

 

who's brake adapter and is that a longer brake piece?

 

L@@king Good!

 

Thanks guys!

The brake adapter/kit is from maximum motor sports, adjustable so that you can adjust how hard the car brakes.
Reason the engine is not in the bay is because i am going to be Poor 15 ing the bottom of the frame rails, all the way back to the fuel tank (once the subframes r completely welded in)
Im going to paint the cage black, because its so hard to get into the tight spaces with a gun (cans are easy with that one, and easier to ouch up with scratches)

 

thanks i gotta put that on the list. is the actual brake pedal adjustable?

 

ya its the pedal that is adjustable, bothup and down, and forward and backward on the pedal arm. really good quality from what i can see! (should be for the price lol)

 

can you PM a link or the part number. from what i can tell for the disc brakes (F & R) i need like a 6in pedal length to keep a stockish pedal feel IIRC
