Looking for anyone still rebuilding Powermasters. I know all about the issues - but this is for a 6000 mile original T-Type so I'm not interested in converting to vac or hydroboost. Is Richard Clark still doing this?

I know everyone has given up on it including me at times but it is coming. By a complete stroke of luck, we have a contract with a major paint company to have it in their booth at SEMA 2019 so it has to get done now.

Nope. It’s still sitting in the corner of my shop. It’s still for sale. If it doesn’t sell I’ll probably end up using it in another project some day.

I ask myself the same thing often. Major setback with body shop. After 2 years of multiple missed completion dates, a lot of money, and a lot of BS, I had to pull the plug and take it to another shop. We were hoping that all they would have to do would be to finish the work but no such luck...

I have one - they are fun cars. I can't say I use it as my DD but I wouldn't be afraid to. I can't leave anything stock - changed cam, injectors, headers, pulleys, etc, etc and it puts down well over 600hp to the tires on a very conservative tune and is a solid 10sec car. I've put plenty of...

While it would be cool, one problem with this idea - EDITING. I know a guy that's been on the show. How it all went down vs what made it on the show were manipulated to a degree. The cars are fast no doubt but the show is somewhat scripted and the outcomes you se on the show are sometimes...

I'm not worried about Evans. He knows he doesn't have room to talk. I'll have this car done before he gets that little engine swap of his done. Two years to change an engine.......just sayin

Didn't realize it's been so long since I posted an update here. Believe it or not we are STILL working on this thing. What appeared to be good body work when I bought the roller turned out to be not so good after it came back from the media blaster. Since NOS parts are hard to come by on...

Hmmm.........looks familiar.

Nice. My best ever 60ft with my stage car was a 1.02. Just crank up that launch boost and hang on!

YOU calling me a slacker? Here's another video after a little tuning. The sound isn't the best due to it being a cell phone camera and the fans blowing in the background. Idles smooth as silk with no IAC.

Sometimes the hobbies aren't always top priority in life but I'm back on it now. Fired the engine in the car for the first time to be sure all the major plumbing and electrical systems are ironed out before it comes back apart to go to the painter.

And the one I've had the most requests for..............the paint. It's different, modern, but still pays homage to the original. The GSX logo is just to make the purists moan a little more! lol I decided the only way to get a direction was going to be to hire a graphic designer. Tavis...

Thought I'd share some progress with the 2 or 3 people that haven't given up on this thing ever getting finished....... Couple of more key pieces to the puzzle. Decided to go with the Racepak Smartwire system. This setup virtually eliminates all relays and fuses typically used and is all...

Well, it's been a while since I've been on here and I've had a few requests for updates. Nothing too exciting to show at this point. Mostly been finishing up some misc fab stuff, misc welding, etc. The car is scheduled to go to the painter in the next few weeks so things should start rolling...

Life gets in the way sometimes. Nothing real exciting to update at this point. Just finishing up some odds and ends fab work before I tear it back apart to take the chassis to the powdercoater. I've got to get moving on it though cause it's supposed to go to the painter first of the year.

Unintentional wheelie due to leaving the pins out of the wheelie bars but made a good pic.

I've been sitting on this engine since I sold the roller a couple of years back. It's too nice of an engine to just sit around and I honestly don't know when I would ever get around to using it with the new car coming together. Sad to say but I guess it's time to move on if the price is...

That seems to be the theme of this build for sure! Hard to get "done" when I haven't had time to touch it in weeks.
