[stealth71]

Looking good. You can check out my '71 build in my sig.

Yeh I printed out your hole build from LS1tech.com

Nice. I got a lot of pointers from your build. Thanks for putting so much detail. I will be pm you to ask a couple of ??

[1badchevelle]

Well I finally got my caliper bracket and had them p-coated. I am aiming to have them installed this weekend along with the ats spindle but its the wife's b-day and she think her b-day is a 3 day event.

The brakes look great.

[Roadbuster]

Looking good!

I like where you are going with this!

I noticed the car you used for your goals has a 70 front end. Are you going to change the nose to a 70 as well?

[72Chevelle454]

Nice build btw. I'm partial to the 71/72 Chevelles, that's why I asked. I like the direction that you're going, especially the LS route. Are you going to mini tub it? With the wheel size you're going with, are you going to be able to tuck the wheels?

[1badchevelle]

not changing the front end just use the pic. I will be using a monte or elco front bumper. Tires not sure yet but looking at 315-35-20 or 305-35-20 for the rear.


Due to cash flow I had to put the build on hold. Well I am finally getting the spare frame to get sand blasted and picking up a couple of low $$ items. I will be coating the floors with por-15 over the next couple of weeks. After that I will be adding some r-blox as a sound deadner. The wife gave me $600 for fathers day under one condition to spend every penny on the car. I may listen to her this one time. I did how ever get this little thing, if anyone wants one let me know.




So at this point over the next month will have the frame and the front and rear suspension on it. a lot of pics to come.

cant beat paying them with cookies

I'm jealous. I've 3 boys of my own (and 1 more in Sept). Cookies eh?! Nice idea! Can't wait to work on a ride with my boys. Keep up the great work. I dig your photoshop/rendering of your vision. Awesome! Love me some velle!

[wingman]

I'd be real interested in one of those little Edelbrock goodies. I'm semi-local to you.(OC)

[1badchevelle]

Got the por 15 on the car nice product. I should have spent a bit more time on the cleaning part of it but that's just me.





I did confirm its a LQ4 not a LQ9 but its okay with me.

The plan for the motor

thumpr cam 54-600-11
comp timing
7.4 pushrods
titanium retainers
gold comp cams roller rockers 1.72 (8mm)
beehive springs
just help it move a bit.

it should sound a bit better than this

well not much has been done as its been pretty hot in Socal I have been doing the family thing.

I did however manage to get these done during the week. S/S door strikers, just need a bit more of polishing and they will be good to go.

[jackfrost]

where did you get those?

[1badchevelle]

home made from S/S

[mc84_zz4]

Nice work!

[1badchevelle]

Jack I made a extra set if you need some.

Well I have been busting my head over the last several weeks. I sold the edelbrock intake and decided to to with a ported ls2 intake. I also have been making a lot of calls and research and have bought the comps mother thumpr cam(54-601-11) to give me a bit of hp gain and give me the idle I was looking for. I also will be picking up thier springs and pushrods. I bought the ls2 intake ans started taking my motor apart.
Since I no longer need my truck intake I will be selling the truck intake, oil pan, and a spare ls1 block I have.

Things I need are ls2 fuel rail, ls2 injectors and a 4 bolt 90 mm t/b or parts to adapt ls2 to ls1. if anyone has any of these parts, laying around let me know I will take them of your hand.
Since I do not know how to replace the cam and do the degreing if anyone is local and would like to give me a hand I will keep the beers coming.

here are some pics. That is my four year old boy lending a hand.

I would also like to thank Rick from Hood-Latches.com for coming out and meeting with me. What a great guy, and the parts look killer. Cant wait till he releases the latch for the chevelles.









no anything in the car that is why its so high.

[brans72]

If jack doesn't get them can I get dibs for my chevelle?

[1968CamaroSS_Sam]

I think that L88 scoop goes really good with the car. Looking great so far.

[1badchevelle]

Brans not a problem I will wait to here back from Jack

Sam-- L-88 hood gives the velle complete diffrent look. I have had this hood for 2 years just sitting around. the hood needs a bit of work but nothing major. I just hope route 66 does not go with the same paint color as I will, since I did see it on the renderings they did for American Hero III
