70 nova. Project war machine.

What are the wires off the front of the prop valve for ? Line lock or some other use ?

[williecutlass]

What size wheel and tire combo you running? Car looks killer.

[Nova70]

It's actually a pressure switch that you could use to control your brake lights, I think I will end up removing it and use a pedal switch instead.

Wheel and tire combo is 18x9 in the front with 275/35 tires and 20x11 in the rear with 305/35 tires. I have BFG KDW tires in the front and Micky Thomson drag radials in the rear. I want to say that the backspacing in the front is either 5.5 or 6 and 6 in the rear.

They must be the xxr 526's ?

[Nova70]

Yes, I got them from a forum member last year sometime.

[Nova70]

So I know I said I was going to do brake lines next but instead I ended up getting a steering column, new intake, tail lights, and I got a different Wilwood master cylinder so I could hook my clutch master cylinder into it.

Oh, yeah, big block and a six speed! Thinking of doing the same with my Camaro. Any problems with making it work?

Not as of yet, I have a LS T56 that I was told was a LT one and I found out while I was trying to get it stabbed in so that sucked but I just picked up the right one and works great. I would have changed the input shaft or used a different bell housing but I just figured the hell with that I'll just get another one and use he LS one for my challenger. Haven't gotten to putting it in yet but it's waiting. It's a tight fit at the shifter for the t56 but other then that it went in without a hitch.

Steering wheel adaptor came in today finally!

[Nova70]

Picked up some things to hook up my heater hoses.

[Z06killinSBF]

Awesome looking car man, love the build.

[Nova70]

Thanks ZO6KillinSBF, So I decided to change the billet bulkhead to a black one and I changed to 45* fittings and my hose clamps came in.

[Paraman1]

Looking good . I really like the heater hoses you ran .

[Nova70]

More parts came in today.

[cwylie]

Are you using the brake reservoir as the reservoir for the clutch?

[Nova70]

Hey Chris, I am using my master cylinder for my clutch also. The one I got from you wouldn't work to do that so I got another one. I got the idea from 72NovaDriver

[Nova70]

Thanks instro84, it's been a lot of work over the last year. I hope to have everything but paint by October of this year.

New coil overs came in today.

[Nova70]

Finished installing the rear coil overs, not 100% set on where the reservoirs are mounted but we will see.
