I`ve read many articles on them and they always seem to make power.
I bought a 1" fully open spacer that is made from a material that doesn`t transmit heat, and track tested it on my car. My car went almost a tenth slower but I blame that on my hood clearance, I don`t have much room and that spacer put my filter to the bottom of the hood and with my "filtered top" it was now restricted.
I took it off and my next run was back to normal.
I will try it again with a cowl hood in the future.
I would suggest it to you if you have the room.

Is there a company selling a stock or stock looking gas tank with the sump already welded on like the picture below? I`ve seen the stainless ones for $800, really don`t want to go that route. I will buy a new tank and a sump and have it welded on if I have to (I don`t have a welder at this time) so I`ll have to find a decent shop in my area. But I thought maybe there`s a company out there that I couldn`t find.

Exactly, my posi used to turn on both sides in the same direction but now years later it rotates like an open rearend
. Although it hooks at the track with slicks like is was new. -
jrb70454... Someone may have removed yours, I have a auto and removed mine.

Yes, definately above and in the frame.

Covan Classics has brushed aluminum panels with holes, gauges, or blank panels. This may not be a correct picture.

I was afraid you were going to ask. This is not my speacilty (transmissions that is), someone will come to help I`m sure. But I do know you fill them first.

Sam... Do you have 1350 series u-joints? I was wondering about the shock on the joints myself, at least with the foot break theres already pressure on them (no shock).

It definately is tight to the firewall, can`t even fit a finger between the two.

Heres the link... http://www.budzter.com
These spacers are nice and heavy duty.

Sam... I`ve installed QA1 rear 12-way adjustable shocks,
Hotchkis rear lowering springs,
adjustable rear spring spacer (sits under the spring on the perch), adjusts from 0 to 4", it can be used to preload right rear tire or lift both sides, adjusts in seconds with a socket set,
Hotchkis rear sway bar,
edelbrock double adjustable rear upper control arms,
edelbrock boxed rear lower control arms,
edelbrock tubular rear braces (for strength and to accurately locate rear suspension).
The rear end is from a 70 chevelle, with a 4.11 posi, added moser c-clip axles with 1/2" wheel studs.

Really? Why not a 10.99?

So now that this post was revived, Hammer did you ever get into the 11`s?

I was reffering to the top of the line 400 tranny (the godfather) from the site he indicated, capable of handling 900hp.

Why not the "Godfather"?

Are you going for that look? or Are you going to try and reduce heat? If its the look, I think it would look good on your engine (the way its laid out with the colors). Don`t wrap a good set though cuz they will rust over time. Ceramic reduces heat also , but I`m sure you know that already.

A cheaper way is to buy aftermarket, but only if you don`t care if it`s no longer original. I purchased Procar rally 2000 seats from summit racing.(Don`t let the name "rally" scare you.) Check out the picture on-line, they even say it has a mucle car look. $267.50 plus $49.95 for brackets (each). I even ran into a guy with a 71 monte carlo at cruise that had the exact seats I had.

Sometimes someone has to state the obvious because it just may have been overlooked, and your not doing this later..
