I spoke to Neil yesterday. He said Frankie Picone is still "missing." He ordered all new wiring parts and will have the chassis wiring to me by March 2022.

Chris,

Sorry I just saw your post.

In the nut shell I went down to S Cal and picked up the completed engine in January 2021 and offl loaded the engine at Scargo in San Raphael a few days later. Due to the F1 type controls, I had two of the wiring harnesses, however I did not have the chassis harness. This harness is a major harness (about $17k). At the same time I picked up the engine from Performance Developments, they moved to Florida. Performance Developments gave the work for the chassis harness to a person named Frankie Picone who use to do the harness work as an employee of Performance Developments. Neil moved to Florida and Frankie moved to Tennessee. After about a year, Frankie was suppose to come to California to deliver the harness to Scargo. Long story short Frankie disappeared with all parts that Performance Developments sent to him and my harness. Neil at Performance Developments try to Locate Frankie, but failed. Performance Developments then reordered all the parts and was in the process of remaking the chassis harness. About a week ago, Neil called me and said the completed harness is very close to being ready.

As for now, I am waiting.

Yes, Performance Developments provided the chassis harness about two weeks ago. S Car Go is installing and checking the Chassis Harness out in conjunction with the CDI, Engine Harnesses and the Porsche ECU.

Hey CJV,
How's it going with KA? I haven't been around for a decade but I see it's still in build form.

Josh,
The motor, tranny and clutch is going together for fitment. Small issue with the flywheel … it is out for machining. The CDS, Engine and Chassis wiring harnesses are at Scargo. We decided to remove the nitrous system because with the power developed on the engine dyno, there was no need.

I am very confident the project will be completed sometime this year.

as my screen name says "st.louis" where I started following this build. I have been in Seattle for 19 years this past labor day. At this point all the state of the art parts that were used could be considered antiques. What a waste of resources!
