In this thrilling episode from StanceWorks, the team delves into what could be the most exhilarating phase of the Ferrari build yet. After enduring the trials of driving, racing, and even witnessing the engine go up in smoke, it's time for a remarkable transformation. With a new engine ready to be dropped in, the crew sets out to revamp the beloved Ferrari. From cleaning up the engine bay post-catastrophe to ensuring E85 compatibility for the fuel system, every detail is meticulously addressed. The goal? To elevate the car to new heights of performance and aesthetics.
The aftermath of the blown-up engine leaves the team facing a monumental cleaning task, with dirt and debris caking every nook and cranny of the engine bay. Enter dry ice blasting, a powerful method employed to restore the bay to its former glory. With precision and care, the team scrubs away the grime, unveiling a surface akin to its original pristine state. The meticulous process not only restores the bay's appearance but also serves a crucial purpose in identifying potential leaks and issues once the new engine is in place.
But the upgrades don't stop there. The introduction of an 8-button control pad at the back of the car adds a touch of high-tech convenience to the mix. With a 3D-printed mount and bulkhead connector in play, the team showcases their engineering prowess in seamlessly integrating this new system. The innovative approach allows for easy access to control various functions from the rear of the vehicle, a feature that promises both practicality and a hint of cool factor. And as a gesture of camaraderie, the team lends a helping hand to Position Advance, demonstrating their gratitude and solidarity within the track community.
