Maybe an admin will link it? Happy to share all my info if you're interested. Haha most of it is in the thread anyway lol Expand Hey Puff. thank you for your post. We've gone down a similar path, but we're adding 3 x addition 7/16 bolts and installing bigger, deeper dowels. We feel that the Atomic units are not long enough, which creates the ability for them to walk (pivot) and elongate the holes. This is what happened with my rig. Btw, how in your rig going? This is the jig that we made to facilitate the procedure. We will likely adapt atomics boss's into our design, so that we can drill and tap the holes straight. We will be running this system with all big hp Barra's moving forward. Thanks @k31th for providing the specific liks to Puff's thread. It saved me a lot of time.

Cams spin free in the head so not sure what broke it, I'll have to get it apart one day and have a look. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/89792-my-build/page/70/#findComment-1717944 Share on other sites More sharing options...

HI PSI Member 1,589 Member For: 19y 5d Gender: Male Location: Central Queensland Posted 25/03/23 07:04 AM Author Share Posted 25/03/23 07:04 AM The sequential shifter runs fine. It's super heavy duty, so you can really swing off it. I haven't had a chance to use the strain gauge yet. We'll test it as soon as the flywheel issue is sorted.

I decided to install a new spigot and CSC and rear main while the box is out. I've gone back to the ARP bolts that I used previously, simply due to size constraints. We're still undecided on which 7/16 bolts we're goin to use. We'll sort that tomorrow and reassemble the car. I can't wait to drive it with this power. I'll post some pics soon.

Not something I can do for a while unfortunately. Looking forward to hearing how she goes. Mine has spent a bit of time on limiter recently, purely because my rear tyres are bald... so far no issues... 🙄 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/89792-my-build/page/70/#findComment-1718046 Share on other sites More sharing options...

We tried to get some 12 point bolts, but were unable to acquire. So we went for some Mopar 7/16 flywheel bolts instead. Gearbox is back in, al that is left is to install the shifter.
