Default Bored weekend project......

Was deciding to buy a torque damper online, but I had a mountain bike shock that I had around. So,I just slap this bitch on as an torque damper... Ghetto FAB!! ---- works, I don't hear this "thud" sound anymore when I change gears. It has a 750lb rated spring(I know it's over kill). Welded a bracket to the engine mount and use an L on the other end.




Had to bend the bracket a little bit for proper angle for the shock to line up correctly.

another great secret, a brace for the master cylender.

i will try to find the video, someone put a camera in under the hood for a race, (road race) and you would be amazed at how much the master cylender moves. I will try to find it.
