Am adding one right now!

Might suggest that you lower until the trans is even with bottom of car (might run into lower cross member clearance issues without forward movement also). This should be about 3/8". Better drive shaft angle, etc.

two choices come to mind. Hot Rod Air and Vintage Air. Both good to work with. One of them sells non-painted alum. Gary

If you are trail braking it could be to much front brake bias. Good job and good luck!

Yes I think the original comment is why a dry sump and an accusump. Thats like bringing a knife and a gun to a knife fight

Great work by the way! Looks like the lower pieces will be used to extend the chassis and then the tops will be welded on. Followed by a bolt in cross member, etc. In the first photo of the other post I can see a heim joint on the rear of the shifter link. Looks like another upgrade?

One last thing. It looks at though the engine and trans are in a CAV "stock" location by the use of the bid diameter distributor. Under full bump of the rear suspension you might have the axles strike the black down tubes. In my case, I was able to use a small MSD dist., GT40 style oil pan...

Bob. As I mentioned in the other thread I thought I could see part of what would be a different cross member then stock. I have had one change in that I got rid of the first steel plate with a much better box section and mounted the sway bar under the exhaust for a better view. I still have...

Would guess rack or castor.

Hi Bob. Nice work and photos. It appears that you have a modified crossmember connecting the two shock towers in the back. Could you post a few photos of that? Thanks

Sorry to butt in in the middle of this but why the 4130 instead of SS or something like that?

Re: Weight of current 40\'s My CAV with full interior, AC, Dart 427W, and ZF is 2550 with all fluids except gas.

Dart block is almost 100 lbs difference between Alum and Iron.

From my memory of a conversation with a very experienced G50 rebuilder they routinely do this on a 4wd 6spd porsche style boxes converted to 2wd. Think it was California Motorsports.

To my knowledge they have changed the rear heim joints so that all are 1/2". Originally the rear joint of the trailing links was 3/8" So that is one of many changes that I have made.

To my knowledge only the bent pedal, rerouted AC lines to left of clutch, relocated AC condenser (not sure), and upgraded 1/2" heim joints on rear trailing links are included as part of SN 100 on. I personally think that many of the other mods make a very nice track car, but have not been fully...

I do and will try to take time to add this sort of info. My full time job(s) are taking a lot of time. I am in the middle of a few other things which include: - Fully heim jointed and easily adjustable upper front control arms. - Custom made polyurethane bushing kit for any or all of the...

No problem Fran and I do not want to come off as picky, but if possible I might suggest the structural walls be on the inside and full welded and the access panels be from the side or wheel well. Just a thought.

Hi all. As some of you know I have completed several upgrades to improve the breed and am working on others as we speak. I have taken some time to show photos of some of the upgrades on my website with very brief descriptions. I will expand this area in coming weeks. You will notice that...

Hi Fran. Great work as always! Any reason why the fuel filler necks are not isolated from the passanger compartment?
