I'm looking forward to getting my GForce differential. Nice to know they're continuing to refine.

You will love it. My unit was a very early one they have really improved them and you are going to be really happy.

[SuperBuickGuy]

You're right, I love it.
It's not the 9", it's "simply" a rebuilt one. They put an eaton locker in, and what a difference. I'd dread driving the car anytime there was moisture on the ground. Now it's not terrible, which is a huge improvement.

A bit noisy, but I expect once it breaks in a bit it'll be okay... if not, sigh.

LoL I remember my 56 Chevrolet. That sucker was as noisy as they come. The rear end whined, the synchronizers whined, heck everything squeaked, rattled, bumped, or flapped. But I do remember one thing, I could tell immediately when someone started singing off key. Many a time I started saving for a rebuild kit for something just cause it didn't sound right.

Missed my goal of finishing the Rollbar setup today. Got everything int he car, the carpet cut, everything centered. Need to start bolting it down now. Just ran out of daylight.

Got the Roll Bar bolted in except the the fenderwell plates. I will need the welder to help me do that. Everything is squared up and in place. The good news is that the front and middle legs tie to the subframe connectors.

Thanks

Got the differential and axles back in today. GForce1320 remachined the bearing races and changed the stub bearings. Neater setup and cleaner.

Worked inside the car today, fastening down the battery cable with clamps. One of those tiring assed jobs you got to do.

[SuperBuickGuy]

nice

I wish Gforce would get my diff done....

Test fitted the interior back into the car today, Took some trimming on some of the panels. Also laid out the Simpson belts and began the installation of the fire suppression system.

Hit a lick on the fire suppression system today. Got the underhood nozzles positioned and tightened down, the trunk nozzles and the passenger side. Next step is to get the bottle mounted and to finish the interior plumbing. Also need to paint the roll bar area as well.

Picked up a really cool Roll Bar mounting kit from Pegasus Racing. Fits the Firecharger fine. Also figured out this Firecharger System only supports a total of three nozzles with outlets for two lines. That means that I will have two nozzles in the Trunk/Fuel Cell zone and one nozzle in the cabin on me. Based on that I am going to install another pbttle to have two nozzles in the engine compartment with an additional one in the cab on me. I would like to figure out a cable pull system that would allow me to activate both bottles simultaneously. Anyone with ideas let me know.
