Here are the dollars spent on the project to date. A couple of qualifiers here: 1). This DOES NOT include the price of the car. 2). This includes ZERO LABOR (except for machine shop labor). So, no R&R of the motor, no fabrication dollars etc. 3). This does not include the price of the RPS twin disc clutch as I have yet to pay for that. 4). These prices are the actual prices paid. Retail prices were NOT listed unless these were the prices paid. For example, the JUN motor internals are very close to retail whereas the Fikse wheel purchase was a smoking deal. 5). No doubt the project could be completed for less dollars, but this is the route we chose to take. 6). I would guestimate that charges not reflected in this writeup (clutch, R&R, fuel system fabrication, fabrication of piping, additional piping purchased, and a large pile of 'stuff', would run close to an additional $14,000).
