Eternal's Straight 6 Build Thread

[Eternal]

Good news! i have found the perfect size factory made intercooler that can take a load of power! Sierra Cosworth woooo heh

[Eternal]

Steering column fitted WOOOOOOO.... But bit of a bugger as the extention is VERY close to the engine mount. How close do you guys think i can go? Or should i do what i have mocked up in the picture and follow the internal chassis rail then go upto the column?

[Eternal]

Smart way to mount the front hoop but also add a bit of bracing to the chassis. Somtimes i supprise myself!

[Eternal]

Loads of progress today.

Headlights fitted,
Roll cage harness cross bar fitted.
Intercooler fitted
Prop shaft cage built (by friend) this splits in half to allow you to drop the shaft out.


Quick question.... i will be running the wiring loom and brake+fuel lines on opposite sides but do they have to be one on the bottom and one on the top?

[wylliezx9r]

There has to be separation between the wiring loom and the fuel lines but otherwise there are no other specific rules as far as I know.

[Eternal]

Cool so running them both along the top of the tunnel will be fine as long as its on opposite sides,

[wylliezx9r]

Yeh that will be fine

Hi Alex,
Bloody hell you on a mission or what.....Don't you sleep
When do you plan to fire it up? Hope you got a big fuel tank for that engine....LOL
What body kit route are you going to take with the rest of the car as you gonna need it soon.

Bye for now Johno

Well rear tub will be a Saturn one. Wings will all be Luego Viento as they have a nice shape to them and able to fit my big rims (rears will eventually be changed to take 325mm rubber)
