Re: No Limit's "K-10"

Hey Rob,

Is this 'build' similar to JT as far as progress updates or are they coming in real-time?

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Re: No Limit's "K-10"

this is pretty much real time. Today we are taking off the front sheet metal, and finalizing the metal work. later we'll send it over to be sandblasted. Next is the firewall and tunnel. Then finish the exhaust hangers and pull the exhaust, motor and trans back out.............

Re: No Limit's "K-10"

After searching out fiberglass and carbon body parts, we're going to go all steel. We found some 'glass but it wasn't that nice, and it's heavier than the steel. We found a few carbon parts, but the money was stupid. So, We're going to keep it all steel. That means blasting, cleaning, and drilling. Owen took the hood home over the weekend to start drilling, we'll see what happens monday. She'll be a 'Holly Roller' !!!

I want to see that hood and how you cut it up and were you put holes in it, I have had mine upside down for a week now and there's not a whole lot to cut on.

Acid dipping to make some lightweight sheet metal? If the roof gets flimsy just do what Penske did to the 69 Trans Am Z/28's, vinyl top.

Re: No Limit's "K-10"

Still need to panel in the firewall center, I'll do that when the motor is out. - al the trim edges are in place. from the inside shot, you see the pocket created by the two firewall panels. The interior panel will hold guages and switches.

Re: No Limit's "K-10"

Some shots with the trans cover in place. The tunnel looks huge, but when you think about how far down a stock dash is, and how much we dropped the floor, it's not as huge as it looks. With the seat in, the tunnel top is about even with the seat - just like a 'vette.
