I had to re build the trans tunnel to fit the new 6l80e transmission. After lots of work with getting the exhaust in the car and figuring out the cooling system the engine was mostly sitting in place. With only a few months remaining until the week long racecar road trip where we Drag Race the car at 4 Different tracks in a week Alex began helping me build the car! At this point I already had the Engine and Trans Mounted but the car still needed almost a complete build! We started with pulling the stock rear end and cleaning up the under side of the car to move on to finishing the engine install and modifying the front steering and swapping the front brakes out to convert the car to 5 Lug. The main goal of the build was to build a super reliable streetcar to take on Rocky Mountain Race Week. If you have not seen the Videos on YouTube or Facebook on the Build, Clyde is a 1972 Mazda Rx2 we swapped a Gen V L83 Direct Injected engine out of a 2014 Chevy Silverado 1500. Alex is the main person that helped me on the Mazda build know as Clyde. On this episode of Build Tune Race I talk to Alex.
