[Fot] who worked on their cars this weekend and what did you do?

[robertten1 at aol.com]

 Well ... installed a 4.11 diff with a quaife; installed a shortened, rebuilt and balanced driveshaft; took the shims out of the front engine mounts allowing the engine to move back .375" (and the drive shaft still can be disconnected and slid back to allow the trans or diff to be removed(couldn't do this before?); reinstalled the composite leaf spring with my version of a spacer between spring and diff (modified to compensate for the portly driver) and lastly filled the diff and new transmission with fluids.? Now I'm recouperating from the many times spent crawling under and out from under the car for wrenches, bolts and peeks at the Sebring race on Speed.? All in all a great 9 hours spent with my racecar. 

?Today after work I'll stop at the garage again and put a couple hours in to finish up reassembly of the rear suspension.? Couple more weeks before my 1st autocross here in the North East.

Cheers,

Just curious what type of pre-race setup, mods, and maintenance took place over the weekend.  Or did you just watch the 12 hours of Sebring on Speed??

I switched from a carter to a holley red fuel pump relocated to the trunk.?
