| New, 4-wheel carbon/carbon brake system by Strange Engineering. |
|
| |
Some machine work to the stock Strange bracket
was required to fit the new caliper.
| Front of the #444 car also required some modifications
to fit. Overall it turned out to be a very clean installation.
|
|
Left front is the same. Thanks to Jeff and Dimitry at Strange Engineering for all their help.

 |
| New air balance manifold (with blue nut on top) for the Hilborn atomizer injector nozzles |
|
|
 |
| Manifold in place prior to installation of the ram tubes |
|
|
|
Final installation: ram tubes and seal plate. A gasket seals around the perimiter of the seal plate and the air scoop within the body. The new balance manifold will balance pressure and help maintain fuel/air mixture as speed and air box pressures increase.
