My Old Friend GTE

We performed a first “major service” on this GTE after overhauling the engine which includes a valve lash, head torque check and overall inspection of the work we did after the first 1500 miles. I found that the water pipe that goes from the back of the cylinder heads to the radiator to be leaking so I installed one of our stainless steel reproduction ones. The owner asked us to prepare the car for a race weekend at a VSCCA event at Lime Rock Park in CT. so we installed overflow bottles, a battery cut-off switch and put safety wire on a few things and shipped it to the track.

The car performed beautifully on the track and was the prettiest car at the event. The owner of this beauty drove it home to New Jersey from CT.
