I need some quick info about upgrades from 2007
« on: July 21, 2012, 03:11:17 am »
I am keeping my eye out on a 2007 legend car that was last raced in 2008. Aside from tires, what kind of upgrades do I need to keep an eye out on? any timing box changes or anything since 2008 that I need to be aware of?

thanks for any info! these 80 hour weeks are close to being worth it! ;D

Aluminum spindles
Mandated roll bar padding
Bilstein Shocks
165 cranking compression
Separation of the Pick-up coil wiring from the wire loom

And as Jim already mentioned, steel braided fuel hose.

If it was raced in 2008, Aluminum spindles and Bilstien shocks were already in the rules

Maybe...I just wanted to make sure it was out there in case this car has not had those updates.

Cool, so my biggest expense will be tires then? I really hope this deal can get worked out quick so I can be racing soon! Thanks!!!
