I'm making a steering rack brace and a sheild for the oil pan. The sheild for the oil pan will be made out of 14 or 10 guage steel. The idea came from the Abbott racing design for the lower brace(part of the VRK) and then F-racing design. Instead of having only one bar that hangs down I decided to try to protect the oil pan from bottoming out or from forgien debri possibly cracking open the oil pan. A side effect of doing this will be stablizing the two bars that cause part of the torque steer problem. By adding this sheild under the car it should also reduce torque steer much better then the Abbott or F-racing design but I will have to wait and see. If everything works out it should reduce my torque steer by over 50%( I got these numbers from Abbott).
Also I picked up all the parts today except for the sheet of steel and the total cost was $4.81. I will have to take pictures of the install and post them. The only problem is I do not have a way of scanning in the pictures. I imagine I will be able to have everything done in a couple of weeks.
