    LOL, yeah, I start early ... typically, I'm not home a lot during Jan / Feb / March / so I need to get a running start on parts, then struggle to be done for the early races :(

    The nitrous bottle met it's new home :D



    I like this, I will be able to see the pressure gauge from the drivers seat ...



    Not sure if it's better to have the clamp nuts on the outside like shown, or the inside. It can be changed, just a tupid little thing to keep me thinking ;)

    Maybe the inside to keep them out of the way for when you put tires in and out. The more you post makes me want to start ordering things now.

    Some progress ... Got word that the G Force main shaft was delivered today. Also got a message that the input shaft was done at the machine shop (ground pilot to 2.3 diameter).

    So parts will be ready to go to assembly for the transmission. Issue now is the parts are on the East coast and I'm on the west coast, lol. Probably go for assembly after thanksgiving.

    I also got the input back from the machine shop. This is the 26 spline input machined down (ground) for the 2.3 pilot ...



    And with a 2.3 pilot bearing ...

    Dropped all the G Force & rebuild parts off tonight. Transmission is going together (I'm likely the only one excited by that ;) )
