69 GTO Build

[Fastmonty]

Gus,

Yes, I'm getting very anxious to get on the street. And yes, the engine dyno was a fantastic decision. No guess work, no timing to mess with, no messing with the carb, and no leaks. Of course, my wife is out of town this weekend, and I have little man. So, no serious alone time with Green Envy. :(

Now that you're waffling on your chassis... I'm going to throw some ideas at you. If you want to save some money, you could do what I should have done. Which is box the existing frame. You and I both have the skills to do that. Then mock up the engine in the frame and take a crack at customizing your headers and mid pipes for the best ground clearance possible. (I removed the header flanges and changed to a ball flange. But, If I were to do it again, I'd also change the location of the two bottom header tubes.)

Can't wait to see your progress!



Mike
