There are times when sorry is not necessary.

Any info on where you purchased your wheel spacers? They look well done, and I am in the market for 1" spacers. Thanks in advance.

I love your build, nicely done.

BUT, I love my spacers too, but these look dangerous for the shear lateral force on the spacers. They are so offsprung with what looks like 6" on the rear end.

Please explain how this will work without putting to much shear force on those? I may be wrong.

They are not dangerous as you may think get them from these guys , the cheaper ones are not made from a solid block of 6061 aluminum but cast metal.The reason why I use these guys I have their spacers on my Chevy dually converting from 5 to 8 lugs going on 5 years with no problems and I use it for work hauling a 6 car carrier and carrying loads too.

Accidents can happen and wheels come off regular hubs as they can with adapters so it is not like like it happens every day.

Porsche used spacers on all their flaired 911's (930, 935, etc). They handle it fine. Archie's uses them too without any issues. I am running just a little over 300hp at the wheels so I feel all will be OK.

I worked on the car a little tonight. More getting frustrated than accomplishing anything. I did however get the last 2 fuel injectors installed. Now it should just be a matter or rewiring the computer from OBD1 to OBD1.5 (94-95).

Tried repinning the ECM to no avail. Can't seem to get the pins out.

Let you know more tomorrow.
