Planned upgrades for this pig:
1) PSC Power Steering Pump - 1500 PSI / High Flow
factory pump is dying/dead cant find a good source for the P185 pump
figured its time to step it up
http://www.polyperformance.com/PSC-80-Up-Dodge-GM-Hi-Performance-P-Pump-w-o-Remote-Feed-Can2) Stewart Stage 1 High Flow water pump and High Flow 180 thermostat
Looking for better cooling on full throttle assaults.
may also incorporate electronic thermostat to engage high speed cooling fan

3) New 1-1/8" bore, brake master cylinder for more volume. ( less pedal travel ) was 1" bore
also adding mechanical stop to brake pedal to stop pedal stroke before bottoming out master cylinder bore.
i have found that in a panic stop situation the brake booster allows for enough force to bottom out the master cylinder.
4) heat shield to block heat soaking from coolant fan blowing on the fuel cell.
only a small part of the cell is exposed to the fan, however i have noticed a pressurized fuel cell spitting gas out the vent tube.
All parts sitting on the work bench.
