Getting some preliminary alignments done before i take the welder out.
So I had too many big power cables stacked up going to my positive side post on my Regal so I bought a piece of .250" thick copper 110 bar and made a short bus bar to hold the positive connections separately.
I tapped two holes and drilled one straight through and cut down some 3/8"-16 bolts to use as studs and used red Loctite to hold them in place, then painted it except for where the connections go.

Now you only have to dream up a cover/insulator for it to keep things from shorting out if they happen to bounce off it and you're set.

Alignments get as good as they get sometimes... and, i wanna drive this animal before i need yearly license medicals.
Welding up the panels now and it sure feels liberating. Missed taking shots of painted inner xmembers, so..... sorry.
Little bits at a time and it should go good, and thank heavens for BIG brealfasts.

Got my engine ready to lift out in the morning. D@mn, I'm not that young guy anymore. It's nice to be able to use my friend's shop with lifts, A/C, all the tools we could need and his help! He had some things to do this afternoon and my back was getting sore and tired so we'll be back at it tomorrow. Lifting the motor out and start cleaning and painting the engine compartment.
It’s been a little while.
All I do it’s drive it everyday and wake up my neighbors at 4:30am.
Most of this was within the last couple weeks.
I did the rear blazer brakes to try and complement the front Brembos. Need to find my old files on a master cylinder upgrade cause don’t think the stock one is gonna cut it. It stops great but I can’t for the life of me lock them up even when I try to do a burnout it just pushes through.
I also have really high under hood temps so I made a template for an air box. Undecided if I’m doing to make it from carbon sheets or just get some aluminum and probably cover with a heat barrier.
