70 Formula 535

[Doug1]

Have you updated your thread lately? I'm curious to see how yours is turning out. Would love to see pics of engine bay, exhaust, rear end, fuel tank, etc., installed...also wondering what you've done to mitigate issues with the torque of that 535...yours is a t-top car IIRC?

You are correct. I'll see if I can get some updates posted. I installed DSE subframe connectors as part of a full new floor pan install. I also added a weld in hoop in the rear and G-Braces under the hood. I think the frame is pretty stiff at this point. i may switch to the AME front subframe if I detect any significant deflection but tests thus far show it is stout.



As soon as I get the custom pulley system from Luhn Performance, it will move quickly from there. I have the exhaust in, but am doing the electrical and plumbing now. That pulley system was critical because I went with a polished motor and used the polished RARE timing cover that takes the SBC water pump. I think it will be here in the next week or so. Fingers crossed :-)
