Sneak Peek: Home-Built Pikes Peak Racer
The engine cover has these vents to extract all the hot air from the engine bay.

 

Buried up against the bulkhead is the big black oil tank for the dry sump system. You can just see the dry sump pump down low mounted to the engine block.

 

Mounted up high is the coolant swirl pot. You can also see the fuel lines going to the fuel tank in the chassis bulkhead.

 

The packaging of the engine was very tight…. The alternator’s business end barely fit.

  1. What a cool project. Bummer they didn’t really get to compete this year. Some pictures of the complete car would be a nice follow up.
