In a dramatic turn of events, StanceWorks bids farewell to the Model A, shifting their undivided attention to the roaring Ferrari. The team embarks on a thrilling journey to install the mighty K20 engine, a task fraught with challenges from the get-go. Their first hurdle? Ensuring the engine's insatiable thirst is quenched with a fuel surge system, a vital defense against starvation during intense track moments. But wait, there's a twist - mounting this crucial system proves to be a nail-biting affair, with clearance woes and the looming threat of debris-induced disaster. As the team deliberates on the ideal placement, the tension mounts, promising an adrenaline-fueled resolution.

With meticulous precision, measurements are taken and a CAD model painstakingly crafted, setting the stage for a high-stakes fabrication showdown. Enter the ingenious use of 3D printing to streamline the process, a stroke of genius that promises both accuracy and efficiency. As the team delves deeper into the engine's heart, a new mount design emerges, tailored to the K20 engine's unique demands. The air crackles with anticipation as the team dives headfirst into the fabrication frenzy, cutting, drilling, and welding their way to a bespoke mount fit for a beast.

Amidst the clang of metal and the crackle of sparks, the engine is temporarily evicted to make way for a flurry of precision-cut parts from the revered SendCutSend. These components, including a robust shield for the surge tank, arrive like heralds of precision engineering, ready to elevate the Ferrari's performance to new heights. The team's dedication to perfection shines through as they meticulously test-fit and weld the parts, ensuring a seamless integration that would make even the most seasoned gearhead nod in approval. And as the engine roars back to life, fueled by the team's unwavering determination and expert craftsmanship, a new chapter in the Ferrari's saga unfolds, promising thrills, challenges, and triumphs in equal measure.
