So, I have the basic design of my "shift selector housing" along with all of the bushings, seals, and the rod itself. Some of these parts will need additional machining, but I am getting ahead of myself. I hope to have some things in hand by the end of next week.

Just an update since I haven't had much, if anything, to make a video about in a while.
I am still waiting for some odds and ends to be delivered. I designed a bronze bushing for the shift housing that has o-rings in it, once the bushing shows up I can finalize the housing for the shifter and get it made and move onto the cable linkage next. I'm also waiting on a few more parts to be 3D printed for the torque tube. I have the basic design for the transmission side of the driveshaft to transmission input shaft made up and a friend is printing it. Once that is done, I can test assemble all of the components for the torque tube on the transmission side. I'm having to make a slight redesign of the clutch side of the torque tube flange to allow the higher engine speed of the F136 to not nuke the bearing that works for the Corvette. I hope to have that figured out and finalized pretty quick. Once that is all done, I will be able to start the process of mounting the engine and transmission! Sent from my Pixel 7 Pro using Tapatalk

Weekly update, because I don't have a video to post today.
Ok, I just placed the order for my shift selector housing assembly. I made some minor changes to the plans on the design. I ended up having the threads cut into the design so I didn't have to deal with the effort, and possibly breaking a tap inside of a something so important. 1st photo is the topside view 2nd is the housing I have designed in relation to the Ferrari/Maserati actuator 3rd is Underside of my design ETA on this part is 3 weeks. I have the input shafts for the propeller shaft of the torque tube drawn up and pretty much finalized. My next step on this is to get that put into an engineering drawing and the machine shop will get that part rolling, add that to another thing I have never done before and need to learn. the material will be in 8620 and then heat treated. roughly 8-10 weeks out on this at the earliest. Clutch input shaft is the 4th picture Transmission input shaft is the 5th picture The Shifter selector rod is currently with the machine shop and should be getting cut within the next few days. Once I have that done, I will run it over to a plating company and have it coated with electroless nickle to allow it a super smooth and low resistance finish. Just like the manually shifted and controlled Ferrari/Maserati cars. I *might* have it done within the next 2-3 weeks. The shifter rod is photo number 6

New video up.
Has nothing really to do with the project, but it does have me being creative. I am still waiting on parts to show up and the wait is killing me.

Hey guys, I am wanting to have some hats made up to further drive the brand of the channel instead of just random hats I own.
Would anyone here be interested in one? I am just trying to get the cost down and to have a few for myself, not looking to make money off anyone. I am thinking about placing the order by the end of the week.

I was initially going to make an order of like 15 or so of the Richardson 112+. In charcoal/black for hat Colors are going to be basic but clean, silver background and black for the symbol, offset to left eye, 2.5in tall. I can do a beanie as well if people would be interested. I'll get to working on finishing up my plans on this and place an order soon. In different news, Latest video is processing and will be live tonight at 2200cst.

Just a little bit of an update while I wait for parts to show up...I know, I say it everytime I make a post...
I was able to get a 3D scan from a user here on FT Club. Major shout out to @kask2_6.0, that was a MASSIVE help to make up some things. It allowed me the ability to use the scan data, and essentially form my brace to fit the subframe almost perfectly. Please see below. I *could* have just made this from cardboard, and it might have been faster, but the finished product as this sits is repeatable. Which is super important to me in the case of something failing or getting destroyed in a collision, remeber, this is a track car first and foremost. Let me know what you think.

Here is a taste of what I have been up to.
Some of these parts exist in the metal. Others in plastic, some are still imaginary! https://www.instagram.com/p/C7X9mG3tA6U/ Feel free to ask me any questions you may have!

annnnnnnnnnnd, I have some forward progress!!!!
Photo 1: is the factory Maserati clutch housing output shaft. Photo 2 : we have 1 metal and finalized driveshaft coupler. This hardened steel part connects the propeller/driveshaft to the clutch output shaft. This part is entirely of my design, borrowing elements from Maserati and Chevrolet. Photo 3: is another of my designs, from scratch, that will mate the Maserati clutch and flywheel, to my driveshaft coupler from photo 2. This is a proof of concept, and does not need to be splined in any way shape or form. Photo 4: is my driveshaft coupler, inserted into the clutch housing output shaft I designed. There is still a long way to go, but we are slowly getting there. This is design iteration like....200+ at this point. You might be asking why so many, or who cares. The truth is, one change creates major implications downstream, that require more changes....it can be a vicious circle. The point is, we are getting closer. This will happen, it just takes time.
