300 hp N/A carb 2.8 V6 engine

car sounds awesome, and appears to be one of the faster cars on your track, you caught back up pretty quick after the spin-out.

Is that a new hood? Do the vents work?
Did the track ever dry out?
Almost seems that you like the thrill of the chase. You just rip the track up when doing so.

How did the race go?

The V6 engine was running all right now.
I had some minor problems with other things, no big deal.
But I am quite satisfied with the result.
I am busy with my business , I mean with my work, I give a race report later.

Here we go again!
First race for me this year in the coming weekend.

One week to the next race.
I had to pull out the transmission.
Weird noices coming out from the clutch (inside bell housing).
The 2-disc clutc was assembled the wrong way.
One of the two center plates was in the wrong position.
But now everything seems to be OK.

Capri, Ford.

This is an Opel, that is used strictly for racing, I doubt any of the stock wiring is still there... lol

Understand, have never seen a stock one with sidedrafts. But may have used the stock fuel pump wiring. When I had dual quads on my H-body I had to add a prime button else the start took forever.

This isn't your basic run of the mills car

Long starting in a GM car is usually the fuel pump relay. When it fails you have to crank until the oil pressure comes up before the fuel pump will turn on.

How many engine starts did that starter have? seems premature.

You are right.
Maybe hundreds of starts. There has been big difficulties to get the engine running in
the past few years.I mean long starting times. The starter has suffered a lot.
It has taken a beaten.

Certainly not loose bolts is the cause of the damage.

But now with the new starter, everything is OK.
