    You have a good crew Kevin, a great workplace. Nice to see the last 10 minutes or so, all the fine adjustments of the engine and the interaction of you all. I'll forgive you the 1 second overrun 😉

    Love the honest explanation of fitting things together that were somewhat built apart and then put together. This happens at every shop. Most cover it up and don't show it. You and Steve Morris do such a great job and own up to real mistakes. Having to put a portable press on the frame in one or two spots is amazing. Testament to how tight of a shop and crew you have.

    Good work fellas 😎🤙. The heat from sandblasting and baking the powder coating definitely warps prefab components.

    Don’t forget that lizard skin and other high build coatings can cause headaches with alignment of the holes. Those side holes get pushed for and aft the most it seems like.

    Maybe after a couple hits the tension between the body and chassis will work itself out. I am curious what chassis changes will be needed to counter the affect ratcheting it in place makes. Oh and I'm not meaning to throw shade I'm legitimately wondering.

    • @KSRPerformanceFabrication
      @KSRPerformanceFabrication  Месяц назад +1

      Te ratchet straps just helped us pull the chassis the rest of the way forward until the holes lined up. The mid plate tube kinda got wedged with the thickness of the powder coat and lizard skin. Once we got it tugged into the right place, everything lined back up
