Title: Re: DKK steves Race car, ( BAD HABIT ) Post by: DKK Ted on September 29, 2010, 21:34:47 pm Bitchen work Danny as always. Heard the motor he's using was built or with help of Hector Uriaus. If so, that is very cool.
Ted Title: Re: DKK steves Race car, ( BAD HABIT ) Post by: Harry/FDK on September 29, 2010, 21:45:24 pm Damn!
Title: Re: DKK steves Race car, ( BAD HABIT ) Post by: Neil Davies on September 30, 2010, 14:59:43 pm Looks awesome Danny and Steve. What size Clecos are you using for the tinwork?
Title: Re: DKK steves Race car, ( BAD HABIT ) Post by: danny gabbard on September 30, 2010, 16:09:48 pm Looks awesome Danny and Steve. What size Clecos are you using for the tinwork? Thanks and they are 1/8, EZ way to tell is by the color. Brown=1/8 silver=3/32 brass=3/16Title: Re: DKK steves Race car, ( BAD HABIT ) Post by: danny gabbard on September 30, 2010, 16:11:55 pm Bitchen work Danny as always.

Ted Title: Re: DKK steves Race car, ( BAD HABIT ) Post by: Steve DKK on October 09, 2010, 16:35:59 pm Here is that motor. Picture took this mmorning...
I finished the intake and now i'm working on the exhaust. To be honost, Hectors passing has taken away alot of the excitement and energy about this car...[attachment=1] Title: Re: DKK steves Race car, ( BAD HABIT ) Post by: Rennsurfer on October 09, 2010, 19:14:12 pm Here is that motor.

To be honost, Hectors passing has taken away alot of the excitement and energy about this car...[attachment=1] And rightly so, Steve. It would be cool to see something regarding Hector's work on the engine displayed on the car when you get to the exterior. Title: Re: DKK steves Race car, ( BAD HABIT ) Post by: Steve DKK on October 09, 2010, 20:28:29 pm Without a doubt Fred.
Title: Re: DKK steves Race car, ( BAD HABIT ) Post by: Rick Meredith on October 09, 2010, 23:00:11 pm The flip side is that it's a fitting tribute. Hector's touch will be on it.
Title: Re: DKK steves Race car, ( BAD HABIT ) Post by: Worm on October 09, 2010, 23:42:32 pm That home made dry sump pump you did looks fantastic! And kudos to you re: Hector's memory. That thing is sweeeeet.

Picture took this mmorning... I finished the intake and now i'm working on the exhaust. To be honost, Hectors passing has taken away alot of the excitement and energy about this car...[attachment=1] Steve, I didn't know Hector, but having read the various threads on the UAC forum, I can see that he was an insirational person for many. Draw inspiration from him not being around, and just think how excited he would be if he was still here. He can't put his energy into it any more so you need to on his behalf. Good luck with the rest of the build. Title: Re: DKK steves Race car, ( BAD HABIT ) Post by: Steve DKK on October 12, 2010, 00:55:13 am Thanks Neil, Well Noted.
Title: Re: DKK steves Race car, ( BAD HABIT ) Post by: Steve DKK on October 22, 2010, 02:26:37 am I talked to John Leso last night. He got me movidated. Good Man...
I built the exhaust today. The engine is in a box for the ride to the tig welder. [attachment=1] Title: Re: DKK steves Race car, ( BAD HABIT ) Post by: Rennsurfer on October 22, 2010, 02:32:38 am TWO THUMBS UP, Steve! That's looking real good, man.
Title: Re: DKK steves Race car, ( BAD HABIT ) Post by: danny gabbard on October 22, 2010, 02:35:03 am Nice tube fitting, I take it a fisherman did not do it LOL!!
Title: Re: DKK steves Race car, ( BAD HABIT ) Post by: Steve DKK on October 22, 2010, 05:30:58 am Did it with a chop saw and a belt sander. The collector pieces were all machined.
Title: Re: DKK steves Race car, ( BAD HABIT ) Post by: DKK Ted on October 22, 2010, 07:25:50 am Hey Steve, I wanna say first, with Danny, you, and of course Hector Uriaus, this is going to be one bad ass race car. But remember this, when the day comes when you bring the car out for the first time to run, you'll be hearing the cheers from the crowds, but Hector will be cheering you from the Heaven's. When this happens, you give it all it's got, to show it was all worth it. And you know, Hector will have a smile ear to ear.
Ted Title: Re: DKK steves Race car, ( BAD HABIT ) Post by: Rick Meredith on October 22, 2010, 07:42:31 am That is looking freaking great Steve... can't wait to see it run!
