''TROUBLE'' my 68 camaro

[tellyv]

We'll after going to the motorstate challenge I've got the bug to build something a little more track worthy. It's actually a pretty solid car that just needs a couple panels, A couple years ago I bought a complete wayne dues c4 front stub and rear install kit, so I hope it will be pretty competitive to the more modern stuff out there? Wegner Motorsports in Markesan Wi will be building the motor this winter but for now I have one of there all aluminum ls 427ci for mock up and punishment (thanks Carl) we will be building something wicked for next year probably 700hp so I'm not sure if the vette irs will hold up or even if its the way to go? I'm going to smooth the fire wall and start mocking everything up and hopefully get some track time before winter so hopefully this build will move along quickly. So enjoy the pics and I am open for any suggestions so if you think something else will work better let me know!!!! Thanks Telly

Is the c4 front stub really all that bad?

You have an awesome project going on . Especially with that powerplant.

Let's just say it needs help! For the amount of help it needs you could just about buy a new front clip.
unless you are a suspension guy an willing to do the fix your self.
This is just my 2 cents from the Art/ Wayne frame that i have an evaluation i have made from it.
Hope this helps

Well my new parts have started to arrive, I decided to give the little guy a chance the fact that he was fast as hell at motorstate did'nt hurt either, so heres the plan, Jakes Hot Rod Shops new c6 vette front subframe and soon to be order his rear torque arm with a fab 9'', probably a c6 set of z06 brakes unless I get a good deal on something else. I'll probably be soliciting for some renderings soon so I can get a good plan going.
