WOW, 2 new '66 Chevelles in a row (previous intro post was a '66). I've been hanging around for a while and figured it's time to say hi. I have a '66 Chevelle with:
Polygraphite suspension
Power disc brakes with spindles
Jeep Cherokee power steering upgrade
70's Nova wheels with new tires
LS1 conversion with 4L60E trans - my favorite
Posi upgrade
Yesterday I added Tiburon seats - which look great!


I look forward to contributing anything I can.

Cool, thanks guys! Appreciate the compliments.

For the stance, I used stock replacement SS (big block) springs for the rear which raised it about 2 inches. For the front, I used stock replacement Malibu (small block) springs and cut a coil. It only dropped it an inch, but it was exactly what I was looking for.
