We are building a class 3 racer for a customer and thought some of you might like to see what we are doing. So here are a few pictures.

Looks great Chuck!

Can I see pics of the other side of the engine? I would like to see how you set up the throttle body / MAF and how it gets around the suspension tube work.

The engine in this racer is only for mockup. What we did in our racer is turned the hose toward the firewall and put the air cleaner inside tha cab. I think you can see that on my site in the racer section.

Very nice work! how long are your front radius arms? That rear shackle is very nice.

Thanks Dusty, I made the bottoms wide for more stability so they will not work on a EB. Also made them longer to lower the CG, as you can see they are above the frame.

Building race Ebs will be offered in that catalog but you don't have to wait for for the catalog :). I would like to get enough EBs racing to have our own class. Score will make a EB class with 5 entries
