New Pace 427 Build

Hi,

I'm looking for a little bit of help. Can anyone who is building an AP help me with the following please:

1. Where does the fuel pressure regulator fit on to the chassis to avoid the exhaust system. I am fitting an underbody exhaust, and have a Holden engine

2. How do the driver's seat sliders fit on to the seats (how are they positioned so that they are in the correct position? Do they need to be fitted in the fully forward, fully back or mid points to get the sitting correct?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Cheers,

Richard

Hi RGF,

Craig has some drawings for precise measurements on all floor holes. When positioned in the "correct" position there is about 25mm clearance between the seat frame and driver side wheel arch. There is then the ability to move the seat a fair way forward and a slight way back.

Check the spacer size if not using seat sliders on passenger side. I originally had shorter length spacers and couldn't understand why my seats were rubbing on the passenger wheel arch despite all my floor measurements being spot on with the diagram.

Im yet to tackle the fuel system and will wait for the manual update on this section to start.

Hope the shoulder is feeling a little better.

Dave.

Richard, just emailed you the extracted pages from the manual for seat mounting. Sorry, I thought you had this section.

The fuel system is one of the last areas we have been working on and ironically the GM normally aspirated engines are the last type we have sorted.

I should have that section of the manual finished today. Will email it through when it is done.

Working hard to getting a full manual update through in the next few days. We are only at 430 pages and 50,000 words. So there will be a lot of information there for you.
