Dry sump pan underway. The fabricated section will be on the same plane as the front part of the sump. I trimmed the rear section too low. Note to self.... don't do stuff in the garage after drinking high octane Barley Wine!

Re: Folvo Racing Build
Cage done, now lining the interior with .040" alloy sheet. Stripped the entire interior of that horrible sound deadening stuff. Had to use paint stripper to get the glue residue off, then scrubbed the inside with a degreaser and prepped ready for painting.
Re: Folvo Racing Build
great job so far dude.

Engine sitting in place....sort of. Blocks of wood for engine mounts lol
Just a dry fit to see what has to be altered. I raised the intercooler up and had to trim the front panel, but it allows the intercooler output tube to almost go directly into the intake plenum.
Now I know how much room I have to make the exhaust manifold.
