M6GT Chassis Material Testing | Testing Lab Day
Exciting day in the lab! We were able to film a little of the setup on how we are testing the base material of our M6GT chassis. We are extremely fortunate to partner with Advanced Facture Mechanics in order to bring real yield/fatigue data to the project! This is one part of our 4-part testing profile for the car's aluminum chassis.

    Been fascinated by the M6GT since I was a kid. Back then I first came across the kit known as the Manta Montage (utilized a Chevy citation drivetrain)and one other kit of it. The look of the car is beautiful and timeless, holds up to anything today. I was blown away to see it in the tv show Hardcastle and Mc., it was beautiful to see under the Vegas lights in front of a hotel. Watched Stacey's show for years, he does nice work. The last two "kits" he's built are spectacular. Your M6 he's working on now, from a engineering standpoint, appears to be a cut above. I hope that your company does great. The larger cockpit version of the M6 would be a welcome thing, though I know Bruce was thinking from a different perspective at the time. Best hopes on this current endeavor gentleman, many thanks to your family for loving this car.

    Make sure if you are doing this to an LH 2.4 car, you keep the engine at Top Dead Center and maintain the flywheel position in relationship to the starter. If you rotate the flywheel notches away from the starter, the engine will not start and you will have to pull everything off again.

    • @Retroformance
      @Retroformance 11 дней назад

      Interesting, never heard of this! We did mark the flywheel pulling it off so this one is good. But top-tip for others! Thanks.

    One thing I learned was to do an interference angle. 1 degree difference between seat and greater angle on valve. Creates better seal. Usually just in intakes.

    What a blast from the past! My buddy and I used to hang out at Rick's shop on saturdays just watching him work. He was always so friendly. My buddy had a Jeep that Rick did some roll cage and exhaust work on and I had a Cougar that he put the exhaust on. I saw his Nova when he first bought it and watched him build it to completion. That thing was and still his mind blowing. Thank You!!!

      Since the car will be sold in kit form, yes the goal is to make sure if someone wanted one they could set it up that way. They may have to try and get a correct rhd steering rack but there shouldn’t be much else that would have to change!

      Something can always “fit” with some work, however to not modify the frame-rails and to get past steering shaft there is very little room.
