Hey all
I've posted an introduction on the forums before but I'd like to invite you all to my build blog.
http://www.awdu13.wordpress.com
I promised myself I would be more active in updates for the New Year and I'm following through with my resolution.
I'll be covering composite work. engine work. fabrication and digital design.
Please subscribe to my blog and stay tuned for more updates.
Your advice is very much appreciated. Suggestions will be taken into consideration and comments are valued dearly!
Cheers!

Laid down my first layer of Carbon Fiber today. The stuff is very tricky to work with.

Looking good.
What other plans do you have for the engine? I assume to take advantage of knife edging the crank (helping with parasidic drac and all that) you would also, or rather should also, get lighter pullies/flywheel and more aggressive cams.
Any of those planned?
Deets man DEETS!

I've purchased a series of Crower cams. They are VERY aggressive. As for the flywheel and clutch package, I'm sticking with a heavier package so that I can carry over the torque to the drivetrain without torque shock.

^ This does not makes sense to me but it's not my car...
And it would have been sweet if the Crank was unbalanced before the Knife Edge.
It makes for an edge without the drill marks, and basically makes the process more effective..
