Guys this build is a joy to follow along with. Great work!
Jeff,totally agree with your tire size choice.
When we ran quick 8 dragster,we had 12' tires for good hitting tracks
and 15's for garbage tracks. Not only where the 15's necessary for
marginal tracks,it helped the "ride" down track.

consider experimenting with the "Cobra Head" ties. The design allows the cut off tail to lay flat against the wrapped section.

After a short slow down the building action is amping back up.

Coming soon is the electrical component mounting and wiring runs.

This new item just in from Kevin Rodden [K & R Performance] showing his usual beautiful work.

Introducing his new Pro-Cube with dial-in display! The two small connectors use fiber optic cable to send the display data. Way cool

Hot Rodding requires building one of a kind brackets, or in this case, two of a kind.

The roadster cockpit is tight or like Monte says, "real estate is limited"

This is plan "D" for mounting the Holley EFI/data logger display, plus K & R switch panel, plus a panel for other controls.

This is our first time to utilize a 100 % duty cycle solenoid as the master cut-off control. While I initially had some reservations in talking with others who have this setup the feedback is good.

So, we'll give it a go.

Jeff had two good days of progress with roughing in wiring and working on other areas. Fuel plumbing and intake manifold completion are next.
