Future plans: building towards Spec Corvette
Future plans so far-
I'm building this towards spec corvette. That allows me to run st3/tt3 with nasa too iirc. The class looks interesting and only so many things you can do
- Fluids need changed. Ordered most of them already- 75w-90 rear diff. Amsoil Torque drive ATF for the transmission. Supposedly its compatible with the earlier t56 paper gaskets. Otherwise use non synthetic.
- Might need the harmonic balancer done. I'll mark it with some paint, but I might just do it when I have the radiator out.
- All the suspension bushings are getting done. I have a poly afe kit. Maybe I'll get delrin eventually, but it was a huge difference in price
- All new ball joints are planned. I have a set of moogs ready to go k6527 and k500134. Word of warning, moog has changed the upper ball joints and they are a lower quality non greasable one. If you can't get the older version I wouldn't pay moog prices for it.
- Spec Corvette spoiler is on order
- Spec Corvette combo oil\rad is on hand and waiting to go it.
- Marrad super low mounts ordered for the driver's seat. The ones it came with were non-adjustable,
- I got a deal on a set of new lifeline 6pt belts. The simpsons were very expired. Legal for hpde, but I'll feel better.
- I think the suspension is the next big order. I'm not sure if I won't wait until mid-season to do that. It'll be almost $4k
