My project progress

Started it up last night and went for a first drive , initial impression is (suprised)

 

Is that suprised , or suprised ?

 

COOL!

Can't wait for the full report!

 

Which was the biggest improvement, the suspension or the engine? would that engine fit without the shock towers being shaved?

 

how long before it goes to the dragstrip

 

So far I'm going to say all around, I haven't drove it but maybe a half mile yet, and won't ffit without shaving the towers

 

Got to get the brakes sorted out and put some street miles on this trans and stall.

 

why automatic? wouldn't a manual be more fun? Expecially with that suspention I would think it'll beg to be taken through some corners.

 

Simple, cost... 6 speeds are high add a good clutch etc etc piles up





The front suspension is set up right now to race, its got light coil overs and 9 way strange adjustable struts and no sway bar, there is definatly handling potential with the right parts

 

Wouldn't a 5 speed from a Camaro, Firebird fit?

 

There is a depth differance in the bellhouing flange area, I had to use a special flexplate and spacer to run the th350

 

Few more pics, got the brakes sorted out now, and the hood on

Now to fix a belt alignment issue,add a return spring to the throttle, aircleaner, and alignment and then hit the road

 

Awesome Joe, It looks great with the new wheels too...
